how to get past the sadness
I just cant do it. I am so completely devastated that my beloved father is so very sick and doesnt have long. I keep waiting for the phone to ring, with my sister telling me that it was all a mistake, that he will be ok. But the news is always worse and worse. My dad doesnt have long and thats all. This good, good man, so strong all his life, so patriotic, so hard-working, so loving to his family. The motto has always been "Its broken?? Well Dad can fix it!!" and he always did...no matter what it was that was broken. This sean-connery type man...we were trying to talk him into trying out for survivor. He could beat the pants off that fighter-pilot guy...so what IS God thinking trying to take him from us.
Re: how to get past the sadness
You'd think that people who have been through this know what to say, but its not true. I really have no words of comfort and I doubt anybody does. Sometimes what helps me (very cliche) is to think of what my mother did achieve, how she would like things to be now, her smile, and the times she told me off for something silly. Theres not a single hour of any day when you do not stop loving or needing your parents and some days you wake up thinking they are still asleep in the next room.
Treasure the time you have with him. I hope he is not suffering and God gives you and your family patience and strengh.
Re: how to get past the sadness
Miss M I thank you so sincerely for your words of comfort and support. ITs just so hard you know? I know my dad has done many great things...for me, for his country, for his family. ANd I do treasure that and always will. but its not the same as having him here with us all. I cant stop the tears and the sorrow that I'm feeling. I want him here for always, for my boys to know him and grow up with him. I just cant imagine life without him. My DAD man. Invincible man.
Re: how to get past the sadness
What an agony of the spirit to go through...My prayers are with you Mo3...
It makes you sympathetic and ao much closer to those who have lost their loved ones as well....Whther a brother, a sister, mother, father son, daughter...This experiece bring the humanity so much closer to each other on a spiritual level...
You can at least know that your father died having lived a wholesome life with children and grandchildren...Think of those who lose their children or their spouse before even having begun thier lives...

Re: how to get past the sadness
My words may not be wise, comforting but you should be proud of your father that he is one of those who didn't do bad in his life, set examples for you, your family, grand kids. You should talk to him more and visit if possible, the best you can do is provide HIM the comfort he needs, this is the time where YOU show what you learnt from your father, time to return the favor he has done in his life ... of course you can't return it all. There are things which are not in man's control, the best man can do is "try" so do that.
