My fathers battle with leukemia ended late wednesday night. He fought very hard but it was just too much. What a terrible thing to watch a love one go through.I would not wish it on my worst enemy. He will be missed Thank you mermaid, sombud, steel city and any others that kept him in your thoughts. I will probably be offline for a bit. see ya soon
My sincere condolences. Give yourself the space you need right now. You can save yourself some trouble later on if you stay with it now. Loosing a parent is one of the biggest rites of passage for a person. Now that he can rest, you are the one in our thoughts. Peace will come. Grat
damn smarmy,losing someone is rough,not to mention watching them go like that.at least he had his family there for him.i am truly sorry to hear of your loss and i hope that you get through this ok,it is a sad sad thing indeed
So sorry to hear of your loss, SMARMY, I lost my dad to cancer last Aug. Take all the time you need, bro.
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Atleast he can rest now no more pain no more wishing to be healthy anymore just peace...DSP
SMARMY, remember all the good times... my thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Peace to you and yours.
I'm sorry for your loss bro. Take care of yourself & do what ya gotta do. Another journey through life has come to an end. Reflect on what was good & don't dwell in the dark times you may have had. Celebrate the life you had with him, and the love you had for him. And remember, a part of him still lives on through you and your children. It may still be rough going for you & yours for a while, but you'll get through it. We'll still be here for you when you are ready to come back. Be well.
I am so sorry Smarmy for your loss of your father. Wish they could find a cure for cancer bro as it takes so many lives and what ppl go thru to battle it to buy a little more time is courageous to say the least. I am sure your love and support along with your family helped him through it for there is no love like one from your child. People will tell you this or that but grieving is just a personal thing so I try not to say anything but I am sorry to anyone who loses a loved one. Takes time and I really do not think when it is a parent, grandparent or your child do you ever stop wanting them here with you but with time maybe the pain gets somewhat better. And every person is different, my grandmom misses my Pops to this day and so do I. Lost my grandfather when I was only 10 but I have such fond memories that I tell my children so they know the man he was. Surround yourself with your loved ones and frds for I am sure you will need them to help you smile plus love and support always can cheer someone up even if it is a shoulder to cry on. Think of all those happy memories and the love you both had as father and son. You can carry that with you in your heart and pass it to your children. My dad has been living on borrowed time and one day I too will know how you feel ....my dad prepares me for this for being a "daddies girl" and the special bond we have, he worries more about how I will handle it. He tells me when he leaves this earth to throw him a party to celebrate his life for he feels he has had such a great time living. Also told me to take his ashes, go to the lake we fish at near my house and spread them there and also over the woods we grow in plus to fire one up and know he is with me in spirit. Hard to imagine losing him but with all his heart issues and the stroke, I know one day I too will have to let go and say goodbye to my best frd which is my dad. Only person who I grow with, the one I tell everything too since my mum LOL is more uptight. He is much easier to talk to and a very wise man with a heart of gold. Your post got to me, made me tear up because I can see the love in your post, hold onto that love and hope it gets you thru this difficult time my frd. Know we are here for you .....my sincere condolences to you and your family. R.I.P. Smarmy's dad.....
to hear of your dads passin, don't worry about shit here, just take care of yourself and the family, they need ya more right now. Take care of yourself and you'll be in my thoughts as well. Sprite
Our imminent death shows us how precious this life is; death around us is a sour reminder. Celebrating and mourning helps. I'm sure this process will put pressure on the mold that makes you. See you later. :new_scatter:
