yankeedoodle300,
First of all let me say that my heart breaks for you! The loss of a loved one is one of the hardest things that anyone will ever have to bear.
My prayers for your family and you in this most troubling time and I hope that God grants you a peace and calm strength to weather this storm. Bless you!

Safe traveling. Cry all you want-- it helps. I still talk to my Grammy, and she died 23 years ago.

You are allowed to cry! It will also be helpful to be with the rest of your family. My thoughts and prayers will be with for the next couple of days. I will also pray for help for you to get through the holiday season.

Deerman, it's so true...and it goes the other way too. It's so hard to talk to Dad and my Mom about his cancer, because it upsets us all so much, and I can see how much he hates to see people he loves upset on account of him. But he's such a great Dad that *of course* I'm sad (and I'm no spring chicken myself, either). So I come here because it's one of the few places where I don't have to pretend that this is going okay. It sucks, I hate it, it's awful, I wish I could kick cancer in its man parts and make it cry for what it's doing to him and to my whole family. And you guys get it. So thank you all for that.

I don't post much but think of you all every day.

Stay tough, feel well. Love to you.

It's never easy............you just gotta do what you gotta do. My Mom died of lung cancer a few years back......she never really told us kids everything, they were very private about it. But we kinda knew

the more secretive they were about it, the more we knew something was up. That was just they way they were with things. I guess they didn't want their children to worry. (?!) I hope you all don't think what I'm about to say is horrible but, at least with a disease like cancer (if it's terminal) you get to say goodbye and support them the best way you can. I think it would be worse if a loving member of your family died suddenly like a car accident, and you never get to say goodbye. Just my thoughts on that lately......

You are so right, know what the doc. said is terminal. Changed my life so much ,have not really said good bye, but have been able to tell those that i love how i feel and make plans for the end.....The one big mistake in my life, was not telling my son that i loved him, and lost him in a car accident, without being able to tell him so....

Coytote...before you give me heck......no I'M not giving up the fight, but will be ready when my time comes, be it this cancer or car wreak , or my try at skydiving.
