Hang on in there Cat. You're doing so well.

The bracelet was such a good idea. Funnily enough my husband gave me a pandora bracelet for Christmas - my daughter helped him to buy it online. It is very special to me and on my birthday I bought myself a new charm for it 'from David'. I'm sure it will mean the same to your mum.

This forum has been my help, guidance and friend over the last 5 years. I appreciate every single person who has taken the time to read my posts, guide me, and who has been there for me. So many people have helped me and for that I would like to say a very heart felt Thank you ...

It is however with huge sadness that I share the sad news of my Dads passing. 6 year of fighting the decease that had already spread so far - he truly is our Hero.

Thankfully I stayed with my Mum & Dad last night along with my Brother - Dad became ill in the night and was in some discomfort - we called the nurses out at 3am and they tried to settle Dad, we sat with him all night long. At 5am while Dad was sleeping Mum and I popped into the living room for a cup of tea, I checked Dad at 6am and he was still struggling but was in & out of consciousness while sleeping. Mum and I both must have nodded off and at 7.30 Mum woke me to say Dad had gone.

Such a brave brave Man, even until the end and he waited until we were sleeping before he left us, he didn't want us there when he took his last breath.

My heart is breaking right now, today has been extremely hard but I know at some point the hurting will end and time will heal us. How lucky am I to have had such a wonderful Dad, I have no idea how life goes on without him but I will do my best to make him proud of me while he watches over me.

Love

Hi,

I'm so sorry to hear that your Dad has passed away. 

Nothing I can say is going to take your pain away just now, I wish I could, but he was so lucky to have a loving family around him.  I do hope in time that it will become easier for you all, and that the memories of the time you shared make you smile, rather than bring a tear.

Thinking of you all at this difficult time.

May he rest in peace.

Cat really sad news. Your dad was a fighter and had you and your mum in his corner covering his back.

There is nothing that I can say to help except to offer my condolences and hope that the love that you have for him and your mum will get you through these difficult times.

You have been an inspiration to me with the strength of determination and the will to fight this horrid disease.

Dear Cat and Family

I send you my sincerest condolences on the loss of a really lovely person. He thought of you all, even until the end.

Your hearts are breaking but they will heal given time, even the sadness you feel now will diminish a lot although thoughts of his loss will always be with you. He is safe now and out of pain.

Your babies will both hurt and heal you as they are too young to understand that granddad has gone forever but they will talk about him and make you laugh (~and cry too I expect) but although their memories will become hazy over time, I know that you will keep his memory alive for them.

The love you have for him shone through all of your posts, he had a daughter to be truly proud of and I'm sure he knew it.
I'm sure your mum is equally proud of you and together you will give each other strength in the coming days and weeks.

I'm thinking of you today and sending my thoughts in the hope that they will help to keep you all strong.

With my very best wishes to you all

Sandra

I'm so sorry, please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your lovely dad. I know we knew the time was near but it still a shock all the same. Both my dad and my brother in law waited until they were alone to pass away. The nurses told us it is very common, almost as though they are waiting for you to leave or go to sleep. You father had a wonderful daughter, he was so proud of you I'm sure of that. See in love to you and your mum and all the family.

With love

Hi Cat

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your dad, it brought a tear to my eye.

You have been a wonderful daughter to him and you know he is proud of you. Having a daughter myself I know of the special relationship between a dad and daughter and so I know from my own feelings how he would feel about you.

I was really touched how you signed off your post "daddys ittle princess". Thinking of you and your family at this sad time.
