Twinkletoes,

This a time in our lives we hate to see come. I lost my father to cancer when I was back in college. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. It is so hard to let go, but at least he will not suffer any longer. I am so happy your brother made it there. My brother was as lucky as yours, although he was able to live with us (he was in the Navy at that time) around three months and they shared some memories.

Again my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Darlene

I will be praying for you, your Dad, and the rest of your family.

Twinkel, I saw this quote a few days ago and thought ofyou and how lose you are to your Dad. Blessings words made me recall the special impact they made on me when my own Dad passed. I was there until the last two hours and I think he waited until I did leave...

But I remember looking in his eyes and realizing for the very first time in my life that I had my Fathers Eyes,

Love, Hugs and suportive prayers to you and here is the quote.

So glad your brother arrived and that you were able to take a little break, sleep in your own bed. Sending you positive thoughts for peace.

Oh Rochelle, I just read your post about your dad now - I am so sorry!

I honestly don't know what to say other than you are in my thoughts and prayers and if you need anything, I am here for you always! You have helped me SO much and I am always here for you whenever you need a shoulder to lean on!

I can't imagine how hard it is watching your dad suffer like this - it must be the hardest thing in the world and I give you lots of credit for being there for your father - many other people wouldn't do that and i'm sure your dad really appreciates everything that you are doing for him, even though he might not be able to say it in person!

I'm thinking about you and your family and keeping you in my thoughts and prayers and sincerley hope you find the strength to get through all of this! Please take good care of yourself and keep us updated as and when you feel up to it!

Thinking about you!

(((Twinks))) Angels attend you all.... ...don't be afraid to be with him, you are never alone, but happy that your other family members have arrived. I am sure it means something to your father. Hope you got some much needed rest. You have been in my prayers.
