The hardest sentence she said "I don't want people's sorrys, I don't want flowers I don't want food to make me feel better. I just want my dad." My heart broke so much.

[@monicajones9037]

It broke my heart

[@itsacarolbthing5221]

I didn't watch all of this, because I'm not in Good place myself at the moment. I felt exactly the same when I lost my dad thirty years ago, and then I lost my mum five years ago. I feel exactly the same today. I feel silly as a 53 year old just wanting my mum and dad, but I guess we're always their children. I just want to put my arms around Cristine, and let her cry. I'm so sad for her.

[@ThePutsh]

[@sarahtrue98]

My mom had cancer when I was in high school and I remember feeling the exact same way. Thankfully she survived, but I was always so upset when people sent us cards or flowers or food. I didn’t want any of that, I just wanted my mom to not be sick. I really relate to that feeling and it’s such a hard thing to go through.

[@nil3552]

I legit cried. Your dad is an inspiration on how dads should be like. I've never had a father figure in my life and seeing your interactions with him just made me fall in love with him. Wish I had a dad like yours. I'm so so sorry for your loss.

[@maishaprice2982]

I felt that way too :(.

[@meganf.9755]

Same. He is the picture of a perfect dad I think. Lots of love and laughter for his girls.

[@JNMKlover]

The way that Andy could tease and laugh at the girls, not in a harming way, he made them have thicker skin. The world is cruel and those girls were driven, intelligent, and loyal. He did a great job with them. Even giving Cristine the jobs at the shop to hone her perfection skills. Dad's can give the best love and protection, but they need to give u doses or realism. U will be swallowed up if they dote on u like a spoiled princess. Education is how u will feed yourself, and Andy taught them to strive for the top.

[@lel4per]

I was not expecting to ugly cry today, and instead of sorry I feel the need to say thank you. Thank you for sharing your dad with your community, he was an absolute joy to get to know a little bit in the videos he was in over the years, and I know you have so many personal memories to look back on and cherish. Thank you for sharing your experience and talking openly about what happened. Know that you handled everything in the best way you possibly could. It was really good to hear the grief experience of someone whose brain works in a highly logical way like mine does. It was odd sometimes when I lost a grandparent suddenly during high school and then lost two in the same year after I graduated from college, and it felt weird getting all the sorries and condolences. I still went to work and did everything as normal even though I was sad but I prefer to grieve in private. I know this will help someone in the future too. My dad will turn 60 next year and you can bet I’ll be asking him when his last doctor appointment was to get everything checked out. 💕❤️💕

[@siggyswatches]

When you were talking about Cristmas, I immediately thought of the video with this conversation: Simply: “Why *did* you name me Cristine with no h?” SimplyDadlogical: “‘cuz you have nothing to do with Christ!“ 😹🖤

The “what ifs,” will eat you alive. Please always remember that death a day too early is kinder, more dignified, more humane, than death a day too late. You girls gave your daddy a great gift in letting him go kindly. Please be kind to yourselves, Cristine, Jen and Ben. We love y’all. 💜

[@RainRemnant]

That is beautifully said, I'll take your advice myself, really needed that and I hope others who could be helped with it, even if only a little, have read it too 💖

[@gabrielagarland3372]

[@clexis14]

I'm taking this advice and sharing with my SIL. She also very recently lost her dad to kidney failure after a transplant failed. Soon after he passed she kept going into the what ifs. If she she brings up the what ifs, I'll tell her this.

[@allinaahmad10]

Thank you for this. I’ll remember.

[@buffalojill8272]

Wow. Well said!

[@fzzypurpleturtle]

What you and your sister decided was merciful. People who have seen the long drawn out thing never ever want to go through it again, personally or to see their loved ones go through it. DNRs are written into my parents wills if they get to a certain stage. You may always live with the what if, but for if the cancer was destined to take his soul from this life to the next, wrapping it up sooner is ultimately better. I am so sorry that you were unable to say or do everything you wanted to do. Death is unfair that way :(

[@princesskiller209]

I cried the same way with her. ❤️

[@CharlyeHebert]

Grief is the price we pay for love. The more we love, the higher our cost. Some days the grief will come like huge waves that leave you gasping for air, but eventually you will learn to surf the waves. It’s absolutely true that time heals all, but in the mean time it really fucking sucks. Please take care of yourself. We love you!

Ben running into the room every time Cristine started to cry was so sweet. Chris is so strong to come on screen and talk about this. It's good to see such a healthy example for helping people through grief.

[@ramonaheart]

I was successfully holding back my tears up to around 26:30 Ben's passionate and compassionate looks at Cristine... Ladies and gentlemen, that's true love!

[@ka786]

I know you're not gonna see this Cristine, but I'm sorry for your loss. It's also frustrating to see people you loved die early and not living their life to the fullest like being in 90's of age. My dad died at 53, he was also my best friend, I'm also a daddy's girl. Lost him last year and I miss him everyday. I appreciate simplydadlogical being a guest in your videos because when you miss him there's something to turn to. I hope you allow yourself to grieve sometime because losing a parent is an emotional scar.

[@christinawoodard3754]

Awe! Sorry for your loss too. We lost my brother 20 years ago. We miss him dearly but grief goes into a different phase and different place. Grief has no end however you move through it. I still have my moments though. It just shows how deeply we love.

[@elleem2381]

This video hit me hard. The things that she said are like my thoughts. I lost my mom to covid in June, and I couldn't be there for her. The feelings of anger are real. I have so many regrets. So many. But I believe that she is in a better place, and I know that we will be reunited eventually. I still miss my best friend.

[@christinawoodard3754]

@@elleem2381 me too. My brother being in California at the time with his wife 37 weeks pregnant with a 2 year old in tow. Getting these calls are heart wrenching. I was bawling I’m so so sorry! Sudden deaths or any deaths are traumatic when it’s close family or family friends. It’s so hard but I learned to trust the process and God to get me through it. In the end i know we will see him again. I don’t even get how my parents are still together cause it is very very traumatizing, to lose a child, So I get how when Cristine said he wouldn’t have survived if he wouldn’t been able to outlive his children. God is good all the time. Especially during these moments in life. You just have to trust in God, faith, and your own strength! First there was love, faith, and in the end just love!💔💔💔💔💔God is love. 😭😭😭

[@jeanaquin]

The part where you talked about not wanting the attention/“sorry” resonated with me so deeply. Holy cow. I know it comes from a good place, but it just wasn’t comforting during that time. It gets a little easier every day.

[@christina1111]

My dad passed away at 60, when I was 16, 7 years ago due to cancer. It still shocks me that I wont be able to see him again. I am glad I met him though. I can completely understand what you mean when you say you don't want people to sat they are sorry and you just want your dad. I used to say something like that also and felt the same way. So, I will tell you nothing. Just send you a big ❤ Cristine

[@binnana13]

Regarding not wanting the attention or to hear people say “I’m so sorry for your loss,” I feel you on that. My brother in law passed away a few years ago from cancer. It started in his tongue but eventually metastasized to his heart. When he passed, I texted a few people but asked them to not respond. I didn’t want to hear the condolences. When it’s so raw, the thought of those words made me angry. It took some time before I was ready to have that influx of attention.

[@itsacarolbthing5221]

When I went back to work after losing my dad thirty years ago I got in the lift with someone that worked in the same building, and she asked how I was doing 'now that my dad had died' (those were her exact words). My response? 'what is it to do with you? We have literally never spoken before, so why are you asking?'. I realise how that I was a little rude, but I just felt that it was such an invasive, personal question from someone who was effectively a stranger. If she'd just said 'I'm sorry for your loss' or even nothing at all, it would have been fine, but I was so angry.

[@PigsInYourYard]

This stream is important and fucking beautiful. This is how we should talk about death and loss. You’re dad has ignited a mass boiling over of love laughter and open conversation.

[@jacquelinekalinowski33]

I'm not gonna lie, my heart is hurting for you so hard. I've watched your channel for years and loved watching the videos your dad made an appearance in- I see a lot of him in you and I understand having to deal with something like this so suddenly and so hard. The biggest part of your stream that got me bawling was Ben- the way he just comes in and genuinely is so soft and caring to you and with you is so special and so rare- I want to give Ben a ton of credit for being such a great emotional support system for you not just during these horrific times like this, but in every high and low you have

[@ayathiac5759]

Because it's hard for you with all the condolences, I will stay away from that and instead tell you this: Cristine, as a fairly recent subscriber/fan (only a few years), I appreciate how authentic you always are. Even when you and Ben are being goofy and silly, there is something so incredibly authentic about how you present yourself. I know it's a fine line because it's also difficult to know how much or how little of yourself to 'give', but you manage to be, always, a kind, thoughtful, smart, fun and nuanced presence in the online world. There are not many people like you that I have found who have the platform you have, and use it for so much good. I believe you have said you don't like to be a role model, but I do consider you one. Not in terms of what I want to do with my life, but rather, how to use one's privilege in a positive way. And this, I think, includes your honesty. Thank you for sharing with us, and for being who you are. Take whatever time you need, but also know that many of us will also understand if you need the distraction that it is to do things like streaming - grief does not conform to rules, and it is much more important that you go through the process however you need to.

[@fortheloveofLDS]

I think you would like Evan & Katelyn's streams. They craft, game, and have an adorable black cat named Joob! They love Menchie and Zyler and I think they could easily venture into the nail world for a collab. They're a great complement to you and Ben.

[@justkibby5959]

Yes! I love their main channel.

[@aliciakt88]

I’ve never cried more at a KZbin video. One of my best friends lost her mom at an early age to breast cancer. This really hit home. Cristine has been an inspiration to me for years, I’ve watched every video. She seems like a genuinely kind, loving person. Someone you’d be friends with in real life and that makes it even harder to watch her cry. Cristine - you are so strong for sharing this with us and I hope you take all the time you need.

[@yarnandleaves9378]

Crying right along with you. Lost my dad almost three years ago and I probably haven't fully processed it. When you asked Ben for Menchie, I remembered how very soon after my dad died, I was sitting in a friend's house and I couldn't talk at all, just cry. But there were dogs in the house and I just managed to say: I would like to hold a dog. So someone handed me a puppy and I held it on my lap for a while and that helped a lot. Soft furry friends can help a lot so I'm happy you have Menchie and Zyler.

[@beepgoesbonk]

Your dad had such a presence about him. You could see how much love he had for his family and how proud he was. Cristine you’re one of the strongest humans I’ve ever seen and I can’t even imagine how difficult this must have been. Solidarity to you and your family in this time ❤️

But know that so many of us are thinking of you ❤️ Also, if you did do a Dad polish, you could donate a portion of the sales to a prostate cancer charity!

[@AngelOfSolitude4]

I lost my dad in february and now we're both crying. I wish I could say things get better, but it doesn't, really. You will keep missing him. I'm personally going through the "year of firsts" now. First time his birthday without him, first fathers day. The first christmas coming up soon and I'm dreading it. Those days are the hardest. For myself it's better when I can be busy and occupy my mind with other things but I still think of him every day. I really miss him. It comes and goes in waves it seems. The waves will get further apart the more time that passes but it never goes away entirely and it can hit you like a ton of bricks. Yet I'm grateful for the times we shared together and that he was my dad. No one can take that away from me. I wish things could be different for us, but it's a part of life I suppose. Even though it really hurts. I wish it didn't have to be this way. Keep your family close, keep Ben close, drink lots of tea and cuddling with the cats, really take care of yourself and surround yourself with some loved ones and you'll be ok.

[@ashley.laughlin6013]

Hi, Cristine. I’m not sure how I missed this, but I didn’t know until you mentioned it in yesterday’s podcast. My dad also passed away from cancer within just a couple months of his diagnosis in ‘09 when I was 18. I understand how you’re feeling and I also completely understand how funky all of “I’m sorry”s can feel. It never really hurts less to miss him, and it never gets less awkward to think of something to say back to the apologies, but I can guarantee-the frequency of the pain will lessen. The thing I hope you do know is how special it is that he got to see you become so astoundingly successful, and that from the banter and interaction we could see in your videos with him, it’s apparent to all of us that you are the way you are largely because of who he was and what he instilled in you-and thats a pretty special way to be as evidenced by all of us being here. I’m just some stranger, but after all this time, your perspective of the world and the positivity you put into it matters to me. I’m really grateful that you share it with us ❤️

Your dad seemed like a great man it's unfortunate how the world can take someone away that was so loved ❤ he always made us laugh and he was always a bright presence. We are all here for you ❤ ♥

found this vod today not knowing it was ever even made. cristine, you have a heart of gold. i love you endlessly.

[@024luna]

The first time I watched your videos years ago I binge watched them. You would say you were not an aesthetician or nail tech or nail professional whatsoever, so much, that I genuinely thought it was satire. I can't remember when it clicked that you were not being sarcastic but I still think you are as legit as the day I found you. And I'm so glad for that day. Your presence on stream and your vids always make my day better. Sending you lots of love ❤

[@nell4427]

Love you Simply

[@Kira_Mine]

I cried with you watching this video. I always loved the videos your dad was in. Take all the time you need. My thoughts are with you and your family. ❤️

[@Ariana-pg9ix]

You’re honestly such an inspiration and so was your dad. I honestly love you and your family so much. Please take care of yourself, I wish you all the love and wellness ❤️❤️❤️

[@reinerca]

I am so sad to have missed this news at the time. As soon as I learned of his passing I heard his voice in my head from the videos you did together, or the times he was called to chime in about whatever was happening. He was so funny and Cristine, you are the apple to his tree - so much of him is in you it's impossible to miss. Almost as impossible as this is to believe. How awful for this to happen and how much he will be missed. Love to you, and to Jen, and to your dad, and to everyone touched by his life.

[@neeneemarie]

Oh my goodness I'm crying. I'm so sorry for your loss. He seemed like such a good man.

[@jennTwaambo]

Oh Cristine. I cannot imagine the pain your heart is feeling. But i wish you and your family deep healing and my deepest condolences for your loss. The glimpse and fraction we got to see of him, cannot be compared to your whole lives lived with him. However from what we were able to i can say with confidence he was an absolute joy to watch. He was a beautiful example of what fathers are supposed to be. And i know he is resting in a beautiful place. May his soul rest in Peace and may you and your family find some one day. We love you ❤❤❤❤

[@paobIoom]

You are really brave Cristine! Thanks for sharing this with all of us, a big hug to you and lots of peace for your family.

[@zlatapetrova8691]

I'm so so sorry for your loss. I realise how hard this is for you. My friend took his life this year and I prioritised my uni over him and never got to see him again before he went. Treasuring the time we did have with those people is what we can do even if its hard. Its happened now and the fact that you where able to chat with him is still something. You're very very strong and time is a healer. I'm sending you hugs and crying with you. We send our condolences to you and your whole family hes was a great man!

[@bextree]

My mom died in April. This video makes me feel less alone. Early, sudden death fucking sucks.

[@agnodyce]

I’m so sorry, I know it doesn’t make it better whatever people say and it’s never a good time or something we are prepared for. I lost my dad in May unexpectedly and it’s something you’ll never overcome, you just learn to live with it. Just be near your close ones and talk to them whenever you need, everything will remind you of her bit with time you’ll make new memories and accept it better ❤️

[@carol127v]

@@agnodyce exactly, you just learn to live with it, but the pain stays the same, if anything its just more bearable.. but it never goes away.

[@emilypasion3869]

This has got to be the most heart wrenching video. It has me in tears. I am terrified for when my parents become older and I am so so so sorry for your loss Cristine..you are so strong thank you for sharing your story.

[@hellotiffanycox]

Your Dad was an absolute gem. Such a wonderful man and father. Thank you for sharing him with us. ❤️

[@melissagwost7668]

I am so sorry for your loss 😞. Sending lots of love and hugs your way.

[@marianajmj]

I loved seeing your dad in your channel. Loved his Sense of humor. He was a joy to watch!

[@eceelakat6296]

I just recently lost my uncle to prostate cancer. I'm crying with you, Cristine. I am so sorry for your loss and I always enjoyed when you had your dad in your videos. You are so much like him!

[@kristenastrup5629]

There wasn’t a dry eye watching this. We all love you, Cristine ❤️

[@haleymiller9532]

So much love to you and your family. You and all you have contributed to the community is a blessing and the little bit we got to experience of how your dad showed us how wonderful a father figure can be - so thank you for sharing that with us and for always being so open. You truly are the realest person on the internet and I admire the courage it took to film this and share these difficult feelings with the world. Thank you for all you do. Love to you and your family

[@MilaGBee]

I'm so so so sorry Cristine from what I had watched he seemed like an amazing man I know I'm just another person offering condolences but I truly want to thank you for letting me get to know his amazing and hilarious personality via your videos I'm sorry for your loss he was a very bright person with an even brighter personality may he rest in peace

[@amyv6360]

Sending you and your family love and light during this difficult time 💙

[@happyascanbe]

My nan passed 25 weeks ago. I still silently raged at everyone who occasionally brought up her being gone and say sorry. I want her back. I've screamed and cried at her in the quiet of my own home. Grief is weird and I hate it.

[@jenthebubble1914]

Your dad seemed like the sweetest man. He was obviously very proud of both you and Jen. My thoughts are with you and your family. ❤️❤️❤️

[@y.m.or.4053]

This is just heartbreaking, it feels even doubly so because it feels like we've all met your dad. He was hilarious and wonderful and brought joy to so many others thanks to you. Please take all the time in the world to process your pain and grief, this is never easy. There's no moving on, there's only moving forward.

[@beckyferrell4716]

I just lost my mom in such a similar way in October and felt so many of the same things you did. It was so hard to tell people we were not interested in hosting visitors or to be able to just sit in my own grief without having to also have people try and process their grief with/to me. It’s awful because as much as I knew other people would miss her and loved her, she was *my mom* - I just wanted to scream “It isn’t the same for you!!!” Anyway, I’m really sorry for your loss (and sorry I am saying sorry, I grew up too close to Canada, ha).
