Dad - 05.12.42 - .-05.10.10

Less than one minute read time.

I lost my darling Dad early Tuesday morning and am utterly heart broken.

He went for RT and the Marsden, anhour later was being rushed to St Georges, luckily we were able to get there and have have eye contact and he squeezed my hand, I told him I loved him. He quickly became unconcious, had a scan and he'd had a catastrphic stroke with major bleeds from the tumours.

He fought for 12 hours, through some things that will haunt me forever, and then the breathing calmed and he looked more comfortable.. At 1am exactly, he breathed his last, surrounded by his family holding his hands..

A part of me died that night with him.

    I'm so sorry to read of your dad's passing. My dad passed away 6 months ago today and I miss him like mad.

    My thoughts are with you and your family at this sad time. Try to take comfort from the fact that he is no longer suffering.

    Best wishes, Christine xx

    Hi Vee, I am so sorry that your Dad has lost his fight, but i am pleased that he was eventually comfortable ad that you got to tell him that you loved him. It won't be much comfort now but it will be soon i promise. It has been 3 months since i lost my dad and sometimes it feels like 3 days others it seems like 3 years. I believe a million pieces of me died that day too but gradually each day i am getting more pieces back as i try to live my life the way that my dad would want me too.

    Remember we are here whenever you want to talk.

    Lots of love to you and your family.
