Dad

Dear Brenda;

I am sorry for your loss. This is not an easy illness especially when our loved ones were in good health before. Your Dad was too young and my heart breaks for you. My Mom passed on Feb 21. In the beginning a surgeon told us she may have a chance for an operation if the tumor would shrink from chemo. Well, she had one chemo treatment and passed a few weeks later. I new the illness was bad, but always had hope. Only a few months before I was out dancing with Mom. She was 76. I pray for everyone on this site. So many are dealing with illness and others have lost loved ones – many too young. I was grateful to have people on this site help me to cope and hope I can help others.

Dear Bella769,

Your story breaks my heart. I am so sorry for your loss. My husband’s story was much the same as your dad’s. He too passed away quickly from this disease that no one had ever heard of before. He was 62. I am hoping you can take some comfort in the fact that he did not have to suffer for a long time and he is now no longer in pain. He will always be with you in your heart and memories.

Love & Hugs,
Darla

Dearest Bella, please accept my sincere condolences on the Passing of your DAD. CC is a tough one and a lot of times when the diagnosis is finally made it is almost too late for treatment. Your father was a Brave man and will always be around you, he is just in a different room.

You were very lucky to have that special love shared between daughter and father. I believe that in Heaven there is no time. There is only the moment. The beauty is that one day, you will meet again and to your Dad, no time will have passed. There is a reason why pain is meant to be part of our journey. It allows us greater depth of feeling which also allows greater heights of joy.

Dear Bella769,

Please accept my condolences on the passing of your dad. I know how hard this must be for you. You were right when you said what a terrible disease this is. It is usually in its late stages before any symptoms appear and most people haven’t heard of it. My husband has been fighting for three and a half years now. He has Stage IV ICC. We take one day at a time and try not to dwell on the negatives. Just like your dad, my husband was in great health until he had a nagging pain in his side. Thus, began our journey. I will keep you and your family in my prayers during this difficult time. God bless, PeggyP
