Losing a parent

Anticipatory Grief

Hello,

I am a 32 year old with a very sick parent. My dad has had chronic health issues my whole life and I’ve always helped care for him but we’re at the stage now, from the looks of it, he doesn’t have very long to live.. I’ve prepared myself for this since I was a child but I’m having a bit of a hard time with pre-grieving..

We talk on the phone almost daily but I am looking for some deeper questions to ask him to learn about his life and connect with him. He really enjoys talking about his life and reminiscing and I enjoy hearing anything he has to say. Any questions help, thanks in advance!
