  • It is not uncommon for children or even other family members to think that they may have played a part in the serious illness/death of a parent, or even in a divorce, but unless you have put poison in his food, his health is the cause, not you. I think maybe you might have had a few fights, and be feeling guilty? by all means, stop the fights, but, if his heart is bad, anything or nothing can set it off. People get sick, sweetie, and eventually they die, and there is very little we can do about it, except appreciate them while they are alive. All the best.
  • No, I think death is a part of life, you cant say I lived untill you die, we all have to go sometime, unless you did something to cause someones death, then it is just part of life
  • Would you think you killed you had a part in killing your Father if, several times out of the year he would all of a sudden become extremely sick, and you would have to take care of him. Stay home from school, stay up all night long, etc. Then one week before he died he was extremely sick again, and after that one week, you just snapped and told him that he was a burden, that he never kept his promises, or his word, that he was a major stress in your life, and so many other terrible things, and then the next day, after that huge fight he went for a drive to see your Sister and Brother, but before that drive as well, He said he Loved you, and you said whatever, it is about time you kept your word. Then he took off and ended up in a one-man car accident. Would you after you found out he had died, think it was your fault or even had a little bit of a part in his death?
  • Yea I would place some of the blame on you. Why would you snap on somebody who cannot control their health? I'm sure he went great lengths to tend to you when you were sick as a child and such. Your words probably caused a great sadness and it is harder to overcome sickness when you are sad or depressed, because your body's focus goes too healing your emotional health in addition to the physical rather than 100% focus on the physical. It's too much of a coincidence that he got sick and stayed alive over and over but once he got sick and you snapped he died after. A lot of times in old couples you see one get sick and pass away and soon after the other passes as well because the person they have been accustomed to loving and living with is no longer there to give them purpose. Well... he might not have felt any purpose after you raged out so it was easier to go than to be a "burden" to you any longer. You couldn't even tell him you loved him back but yet your sister and brother didn't even get the opportunity to hear him say it one last time.
  • The only way you can have a part in someone's death is if you knowingly set in motion a string of events that could very well lead to their doom. There is no way you could have known your father was going to die that way. So no, you had no part in his death. Death is the final stage in the cycle of life. It is the most difficult thing in the world to deal with, but we must. You did not kill your father, nor did anyone else. He simply got done doing what we all have to eventually.
  • Did you put somethong in his food or drink?
