Lost My Dad Last Monday 7-13-09

[Riviman]

Right now I feel lost like I never have been. He went in for a small type surgery. But complications arose that spiralled out of control. I do not know what to think or feel right now. Been trying to be the main support for my Mom. And my wife has been mine ( God Bless Her ). Then last nite my Mom calls to tell me her Brother passed away. Go to her for support and as I'm there my wife calls, she had to rush her Mom to the hospital. Just got to work after getting to the hospital about 5:30 A.M.. I just hope things settle down. My Mom and I won't be able to get to Alabama to say good-bye to my Uncle. She's too upset about Dad yet. Sorry to drag this out but needed to get it out of my mind.

You have my sincere condolences. Unfortunatley the loss of a parent is something we must all face at some point. Hopefully the family is close because that sure does help a lot. Life will take on a whole new persepctive. Things will never be the same without him but you have a lifetime of memories to hang onto and know that you'll meet up with him in a different life.

Lost my father-in-law a couple years ago suddenly without warning. We know thats the way he would have wanted to go vs being in a nursing home or being dependant on others for his care but it didn't make it any easier for us. I am blessed to still have my parents who are in good health in their mid 70s. I have come to treasure every moment we can spend with them.

My Mom and I we're just making arrangements for her to go visit her Brother on Saturday nite and then he passed on Sunday nite. Even tho she has us kids ( 6 of us ) she really wanted to be with her brother for a while also. I know that's life, but certainly seemed like a cruel trick.

[UnseenGSX]

Hank my thoughts and pryers will be with you and your family as well.

[TOPLESS71]

My prayers go out to you and your family.

Prayers, and condolences to you, your family, and all that knew him.

He will always be with you though.

Thoughts and prayers for you Riviman, now and for a long time. That is a big cargo to carry all at once. If you start feeling low, remember there is someone thinking, praying, and caring about you.

My sincerest condolences as well. Life throws you curveballs sometimes. My father went into the hospital for a checkup five years ago, somehow fluid got into his lungs and went into a coma for 4 months. He did not die but he never really fully recovered. It was heartbreaking. I felt like I had that part of my life stolen from me, I can only imagine you feel similarly. Best wishes to you and your family.
