Farewell Dad

[smokeysmoo]

I lost my Dad this afternoon.

With advanced prostate cancer and having been in nursing care since November it wasn't a surprise , but even so.

We were lucky in that we were able to spend most of our time with him since getting 'the call' on Monday, and my Mum was able to visit him yesterday, (her own mobility problems means it's far from easy for her to get out).

Anyway I thought I'd mention it in a place that's discussed PC before. I know it's affected Cc'ers and I've previosuly posted about Dad's PC as well.

Also if I talk about it I break down right now, but somehow typing this has not had that effect.

Thanks for listening.

Type away if it helps.
I lost my step father to prostrate cancer which had been thought to be in remission and my dad to a massive heart attack. No happy outcome.

Lost my parents to cancer at a young age. Still haunted by it.
Sorry for your loss.

Losing a loved one is always hard. Losing a loved one to a terrible disease like prostate cancer doubly so. Take care.

So sorry to hear that. It’s so tough to see them decline. My own dad has battled it for 10 years but is going downhill now so I can understand your pain. Have a virtual hug.

 

[Fonze]

My deepest sympathies , had my own loss to deal with so I know where you are with it all ..

 

[Cycleops]

Always a shock even when you're expecting it. I'm sure you did your best for him.

 

[DCLane]

My condolences to you and your family. I've not had to go through this yet, but it'll be sooner rather than later with my in-laws.

Type away if it helps.
