The wording of this made me chuckle. 😅 Definitely not mandatory and lots of things can impact when someone might 'pop their clogs'. Is it something you're worried about?
That seems like a very confusing and upsetting conversation to have with your dad. I don't think that's the case. A lot of factors come into play when it comes to death, a lot of which are completely out of our control.
Do you feel anxious about this? Please remember this is a safe space and if you feel able to, you can always express how you're feeling about this situation.
How are your referrals and activities going for you so far?
