My Daddy died

[SilberKatze]

Kathylee, I'm so sorry about your Father. My wishes and luck for you and your family.
I really don't know what to say as I have never had something even remotely close to this happen, but all I can say is that I wish for the best for you. *Hugs*

Once again, I'm so sorry. =(

Oh Kathylee, words don't even come close to saying how sorry I am for you.  As others have said you daughter will come to terms in time but it's always our nearest and dearest we hit out at when we're hurting.

Be gentle and give yourself time to grieve and heal.

Love Wen x x

Hi,
I did not know how raw I am....I dont really know where I am with this.....writing here was what I needed to 'break' the wall it seems but now I pulled back....I havent read all your notes cause..cause I seem to be scared of something. It has all been too, too much... the hospitalization, my daughter having a scary surgery that came out well but at first it looked very, very bad ( wrote about this elsewhere..her Dad died shortly after this type of surgery-exporatory). Ive lost control of so much right now..having a hard time getting my bearings...its hour by hour most days now cause I'm not responding as strongly to mestinon for the MG which I was in the hospital for...the wonderful GIFT here is I do not feel alone in all this with all of you ou there. Thank you so.

I'm glad that today was better for you....take good care of yourself.......you will heal in your own way and time.

We will always be here if you need to "talk" or get things out of your system.  Hugs to you and both of your daughters!

Kathy , you and your family are in my prayers.  Making difficult decisions for the elderly is always sad and causes guilt even when we know it is the right thing to do.  I went through that with my grandmother when she basically forgot even the basics like eating.  Our hearts wanted to get food in her anyway we could just to keep her near but our heads told us that at 94 a feeding tube would be painful and cruel.

I know it must have been very hard not to attend the funeral but your Dad knew your love.  That is what it is about - letting our loved ones know how much we care while they are here around us.  You did that very well. 

May God bless you with peace and beautiful memories of your father.

So glad to hear you are doing a bit better. It is perfectly understandable that this has been an overwhelming time for you. Please take care and allow yourself time to get through all your feelings as they unfold. This is a great group of people who provide us all with such good support.

Kathylee, it's been 11 years since my Dad died, there is not one day I don't think of him.  I don't have to go far to tell him I love him.  Because he is with me in my heart. 

My thoughts and prayers for you and your family for better times.  I am glad to hear that your daughter is doing better after her surgery. 

Just know you are not along that you have your father memories always there in your heart, as I continue to hold my father's memories close to me even after 11 years.

Hugs

Gerri
