What sad news, Heather, but it sounds as though your Dad was as blessed to have you and your family as you were to have him. I hope you find this comforting: Death is nothing at all. I have only slipped away into the next room. I am I, and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, that we still are. Call me by my old familiar name; speak to me in the easy way that you always used. Put no difference in your tone; wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was, let it be spoken without effect, without the trace of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was; there is unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you for an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner. All is well. Canon Scott Holland 1910 Best wishes to you and yours at this sad time xox |

Heather, So sorry to hear your news. Your story has resonance for me and I understand your pain. Treasure the happy memories - and know that you did everything you could for him. You will always miss your Dad, but the pain gets easier to bear. Talk to people about him ... it helps. Love & hugs, Jane |
