    My Dad Rocks, I am so sorry about your wonderful Dad and please accept my heartfelt Sympathies.

    From a book of blessings called “Benedictus” by John O’Donohue – Irish Poet & Philosopher
    When you lose someone you love,
    Your life becomes strange,
    The ground beneath you becomes fragile,
    Your thoughts make your eyes unsure;
    And some dead echo drags your voice down
    Where words have no confidence
    Your heart has grown heavy with loss.
    And though this loss has wounded others too,
    No one knows what has been taken from you
    When the silence of absence deepens.
    There are days when you wake up happy;
    Again inside the fullness of life,
    Until the moment breaks
    And you are thrown back
    Onto the black tide of loss.
    Days when you have your heart back,
    You are able to function well
    Until in the middle of work or encounter,
    Suddenly with no warning,
    You are ambushed by grief.
    More than you, it knows its way
    And will find the right time
    To pull and pull the rope of grief
    Until that coiled hill of tears
    Has reduced to its last drop.
    Gradually, you will learn acquaintance
    With the invisible form of your departed;
    And when the work of grief is done,
    The wound of loss will heal
    And you will have learned
    And be able to enter the hearth
    In your soul where your loved one
    Has awaited your return
    All the time.

    Hi,

    Your dad was lucky to have such a caring daughter; he is at peace now and will suffer no more. I, too, was at my dad’s side when he passed away a year and a half ago. So, I know what you mean when you say you were blessed to be there. My husband continues to fight this awful disease but he is very ill. I pray that your family will find peace and comfort knowing that your dad is in a better place. Sending lots of hugs your way, PeggyP

    On June 15, 2012, 7 months and 1 day after diagnosis with stage IV CC, my Dad lost his battle with this evil, selfish bastard. I was blessed to be with him when he passed away.

    Our family requested that donations in his memory be made here, so that maybe in the future someone else will be spared our heartache.

    I love you, Dad. I miss you.
