Dr.Not So Evil

I am soo sorry to hear about that. I won't even pretend to know what that is like, as I couldn't imagine losing my father. I do know that it must be a very painful time for you. Yes, life does go on - but it's hard to realize that in such tragedy. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Love,
Jeron

i know what your going through, My heart and thoughts go out to you.

My thoughts are with you and your family tonight, Gae.

as the Timster noted above, I lost my own father just in the past week (well, a week ago Saturday) -- so I know what it feels like, and it is the only time in our lives we will ever feel this (we get but the one dad). It was less of a surprise in my case, though -- while losing someone in an accident (I've felt that one too, but not my dad) is a whole other proposition. Please accept the sympathy of another one who knows, and please take care of yourself. That's the most important part. We all, after all, are the ones who are still here. Who knows why we were PUT here, but "to take care of each other" does not sound like such a poor mission.

Sincerely,

Anyway, I know it will be an long time till you feel at least some what better, but I would like to wish you and your family my wishes.

Words really cannot express my sympathy at your loss. I hope that there is some comfort in the compassion that these fine people have shared. You have my best thoughts and prayers.

In reading these posts, I was again struck by two things.

First, how astoundingly fortunate I have been in this regard. I've seen plenty of death, including some good friends and some innocent strangers.....yet I know that pales with the loss of a parent (or child, for all that). I wish that I had the knowledge to ease your pain, Gae.

Second, and I've said it before, is that Life is as fragile as spun glass; also as beautiful. I hope, Gae, that you and everyone else here enjoys all that Life can be for a very long time.

Be careful out there, people.

And Gae - be good to yourself.

my thoughts and prayers will always be with you. May God give you strength and comfort in this trying time and know that you have friends here who care about you and are able and willing to help.

My prayers are with you all. Remember, don't keep a stiff upper lip - that makes it very hard to smile.

Gae, HRocco, Timmer, Mary and all who have lost close friends and relatives, my heartfelt condolences to all. Being a bit older than most of you here, i've lost both my parents. One VERY suddenly and one long and painfully. It is a feeling like no other.
I will keep you all in my heart.

I know my grandmother took almost 5 years in great pain, before she past away, even though I was not that close with her I could see how it effected my father and grand father. Any ways, I hope nobody has to go through the same.

I am unfortunatley not a religious person, but I do believe in the strength of the human spirit. I know you will be strong enough to pull through this yourself, and if you are fortunate enough to have religion to guide you, it will be that much easier.
