I have spoken to my pastor but I still need some answers and I was wondering does anyone know a website I could go find to write and search for what I need to help me through this, I cannot sleep and am really having a hard time with this. If anyone knows I`d appreciate it. Thanks!!

I am sorry for your loss.
Grief is normal and healthy. Experiencing is part of life and part of moving on in your life. I don't know what answers you seek, and maybe you don't either. Hold his memory in your and take solace in them. Share your pain and memories with others who knew them. Seek temporary psychiatric care in the form of anti-depressents if the pain has not abated at all after a month or so. (Naturally there will always be times of pain and sadness, but it should not be as frequent.) Keep in mind that lack of sleep and not taking care of yourself physically in other ways (eating, exercise) can bring on depression too.
You can find support groups online like here: http://www.griefnet.org/
In addition to the anonymity of the Net, which can make it easier to open up sometimes, you will have access to many people who might know of book resources that might help, and who can share their experiences and what they have done.
A support website might be useful for some of what you need, however face to face interaction with people has unique value.

I am sorry for the loss of your father.
Even though you spoke withyour pastor and he has given you words of comfort, a Grief group might help you work through your grief. If your father was in hospice, they would have a grief group that would be able to help you. You can contact your local hospitals and mental health centers to see who provides such groups. The groups helps you to know that you are not going through the struggle alone and it help you get to a place where you can move on in your life.
Web sites are great but sometimes hearing a voice, seeing the pain, and actually crying with some one who understands has a greater restorative quality.
May God continue to comfort you.

I know how you feel. I lost my younger sister to cancer.
Like you I was not the only one who was grieving. I found that my talking to the others and helping them with the grieving process also helped me a great deal.
Thewebsite given by the first anserer is good but face to face counselling from someone qualified in berievment is much better
Finally, whatever you may think or believe right now you WILL get through this.

I went throught the same thing when my little sister suddenly passed away 2 years ago from a freak heart attack. I had to go to the hospital and identify the body, call my parents who live in NY and arrange 2 funerals one in LA and one in NY. I still have difficulty letting her go. August 1, was her 2 year passing, and I was so numb with grief... and people can't understand, they say it's been two years get over it... but it's hard.
If you want to, you can email me, sspark7413@yahoo.com

We all have to go through this in our life.
For both parents, sometimes brothers and sisters, grandparents, aunts, uncles, pets, friends . . . . it just goes on and on.
Just remember that this is perfectly natural.
Look how many people there are in the world.
In 100 years time every one of those people will be gone and new ones will be there taking their place.
We all have to get through this - and so will your children one day.

My friend, websites cannot help you clear your grieve. They can only give you advice. the best thing to do now is to talk to someone (a family member, perhaps?) about how you feel. Share your burden with them. I'm very sorry for your loss.
