Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts last Friday when my daddy was taking a turn for the worse. He passed away Friday night surrounded by me and DH and my brother and his wife. He is with my mom now :angel: In the end it was peaceful and calm.

As some of you know, Daddy moved in with us in December and I've been his full-time caregiver. Everyone on here who said it would be hard but the best thing I ever did was so right. I will never regret the 10 weeks I had with my father. Last Tuesday daddy was in tremendous pain and I said "cancer sucks - everything about it sucks" and he said "not everything, I've gotten to spend all this time with you." I will treasure those words forever. I was Daddy's little girl and he never let me forget that.

God bless.
 
You have such wonderful memories that will last your lifetime....

I am sorry you lost your father..:grouphug:
 
I replied to you this morning, but my post disappeared for some reason..

My heart hurt when I read your words. I am so glad that you had the time with your Dad....even in pain he managed to let you know how much you meant to him. I think it was incredible that you got to spend that precious time with him...and that you took full time care of him which is not an easy thing to do. I hope I have your strength when I have to step up......of course I am still praying for a miracle and am always hopeful with my husband's cancer, but I am also a realist... I live my life one day at a time.

Anyway.. hugs to you, I am glad he is at peace and with your Mom.....take care of yourself and come here whenever you feel like chatting, we are here for you. Peace to you too...
 

I am so so sorry for your loss. I lost my mom this Friday as well so I know your pain. Please feel free to pm me if you want to talk. My prayers are with you and your family.
 
I am very sorry for your pain, know that you made his last days brighter, and is now in a better place.

You and your family will be on our hearts and in our prayers

Dave
