My deepest sympathies to you and your family. Your father is at peace now and no longer hurting. Be thankful that you had him in your life. Cherish the memories that you share with him.

I'm sorry for your loss.
I watched my boyfriend deal with the same thing with his father over the summer and it was heartbreaking to watch a man who was once so strong just completely deteriorate in only a few months.
Your father is no longer in pain and is now in a place where he can always watch over you.

Thank you every one.

I thought I would share the beautiful story of his death. It shows true love.

My mother was in the living room with him. She was on the couch holding his hand while he was in a coma like state (he had an stoke about 2:30am last night). About 6:38 to 6:41 my mother said " I do not want you to suffer any more. I am ready to let you go. PLease do me one last thing. Stand up straight and march into heaven" and the grunted and died. Those were my mothers exact words.

It is ironic about her saying march into heaven. Because 1) he is in a wheel chair 2) he is a vet.

They last words he said to me (before he had his stroke) was "goodnight my baby girl, I love you"

My family stayed in the living room with him until the Funeral home came to remove him. He did all the paper work around him and I even showed him his urn. We left the room when they were going to take him out. I could not see that.

I'm really happy that you got those last words from your father. That should strengthen your memory of him in a good way, and make dealing with his passing easier.

I am very sorry for your loss, Christia.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

sairose 03-02-2004 06:17 PM

Awww, sweetie, I'm so sorry. :( Losing someone you love is always hard. I have never lost a parent, but I imagine it must be very hard.

I won't say, "I know how you feel", because well, I don't. I've lost other relatives...but never a parent, and I hate when people tell me, "I know how you feel".

I WILL tell you though, that I know what it's like to lose someone close to you. And I will tell you that I'm here if you would like to talk about it. I will pray for you.

God bless you, sweetie, and remember that we're all here for you. *hugs*

Senusret I 03-02-2004 08:19 PM

God bless you, Christia...stay strong.

Steeltrap 03-02-2004 08:40 PM

Thoughts and prayers. I've been there in terms of losing a parent. My Dad passed away just over seven years ago.

justamom 03-02-2004 09:06 PM

All my love and prayers to you and your family.

Hootie 03-02-2004 09:13 PM

I am SO sorry to hear about your loss sweetie. I know this isn't going to be an easy time for you or your family. At least you have each other to lean on and the Lord to hear your prayers and comfort you.

I wish your family comfort and strength during this difficult time. :(
I will be praying and thinking of you!

wishuponastar 03-02-2004 09:34 PM

:( There is little that I can say to you at a time like this... I am so so sorry for your loss. And the story of your fathers last moments with your mother is so beautiful and brought tears to my eyes. You and your family are absolutely in my thoughts and prayers.
