Perfectly said PH! ♥️😊

I cannot express myself enough on my appreciation by all of your words of support, thoughts and prayers.

I can honestly say I love my forum family...♥️...(despite your crazy liberal views 😀)

I am at your service my friend, you know that. Thanks are not necessary but appreciated. It's part of what friends are for.  :smile:

And I agree; what is a family without disagreements and very differing points of view? But when the chips are down, we are quick to align ourselves in order to support one another. And I am pleased to find our family has not changed, but grown as well. Our numbers may not be legion, but our quality exceeds those of many legions.

When I eventually check out myself, I want you all to know that I will find a way to send each one of you a sign that you will recognize. (If it is at all possible; and it is my sincere position that it is). Just to let you know I made the crossing safe and sound, and am missing our on line banter.  :smile:

(And Henry, your sign will be the same one you received during the past week; but larger in number. Three I would think).

This is a great group of individuals we have gathered here, and that is rare in physical life; rarer in cyber-space.  :yes:

Pretty good it hurts even more than I thought it would despite it was something we all knew was best for him.

It has been a long ordeal (started on Dec 9)...trying to get back to some sort of normalcy

Again thanks to you and the rest of the zone family...it did indeed help.

Hang in their Henry. You will have good days and bad days. I would like to say the good outweighs the bad but not necessarily so. Each person grieves differently so take your time and just know that you are cared about!

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
Poem by Mary Elizabeth Frye.

The nurses at Anderson St Vincent was outstanding! They did such a wonderful job at keeping him comfortable and peaceful.  They were very accomadatting to me and my sister.  They were very sweet and caring to Dad.

Yeah...as I was telling another member in a PM,  It was much harder than I dreamed. Even though he was ready and wanted to die.......It was difficult to sit beside him day in and day out and watch him deteriorate.  He was peaceful.
He and I was very close.....and I am extremely grateful that I got have a "Dad" for 55 years....and he was a very good one too!

I miss him like crazy, but he is no longer in any pain or misery.

Thanks for asking....  :)

Hank, I'm sorry if I was too rough on you so soon after your devastating loss. I've been going through a loss of my own and guess my level of sensitivity where others are concerned is not what it used to be. Kinda like stay tough to keep from crying.
