Patricia Kihoro shares details of harrowing past months while eulogizing dad

Hardly processing that grief while facing Dad’s deteriorating health. Mentally, in shambles. Physically, in and out of hospitals for Dad’s multiple stays. Failing at holding my life together as Dad’s body gradually failed him.

And then he died, and I came undone,”

I fell into a state, barely seeing beyond tomorrows. Almost catatonic, steeped in pain nothing mattered except mum and my brothers. If not for family, my friends, and my psychiatrist, I don’t know.

But the clouds are parting. The sun is finding me again.

This pain though, is a beautiful pain and in some way, I don’t ever want it to end. It’s a beautiful reminder of the big, expansive love that I, we, had the privilege of experiencing while they were here.

‘It is said that all that we love is merely loaned to us, and we must not take our companions for granted. We must uphold our side of that ancient bargain.’

Till we meet again. I love you, always,” the last of her lengthy emotional post read.
