Hi, I don't know whether I am going to be able to make it any better for you. I think that if you believe your mom honestly you could do it, take care of your brother with you. It would be easier here for you to take care of him , than from afar. He would be able to grow up with some more guidance from you. If your brother is responsible and understanding then he will help you with your decision. However I am not sure if you are under any obligation to do as your mom says. But be assured she wants you to take care of him, far or near , you can make him feel stronger and grounded. You should also see if you can handle the responsibility. If you are responsible in yourself then go for it otherwise take some time to bring him over. Thanks, Kavish

Hi Rekim, Just the thought that you are thoughtful about your dad is sign for me that you did things to make him proud of you. You will always love him and I am sure he loved you. Just keep him in your heart as I do with my best friend's thoughts in my heart all the time. I know she loved me and I know I will always do things to make her proud of what she put in me. All the goodness of hers for me as a legacy to carry on. Thank you, Kavish

Your mom is lovely. Happy Birthday to her. Kavish

I miss my friend just as much who took care of me while I was a boarder at her place. I wake up everyday thinking of her, and saying I wish she was here with me. It is getting stronger and stronger that I seem to think of her more and more as I go on in my life. I will never forget her and never ever will replace her thoughts with others because she loved me unconditionally as a friend, a mentor, a nurturer of human spirits and my feelings for her will only go stronger as I go on in this life on this earth. Thank you, Kavish

Hi Biru, Happy Birthday to your dad. Have a great day. Kavish

I am sure he will be with you wherever you go. I am sure I have my best friend with me where ever I go and her well wishes for me to carry on through. I am sure your dad is going to be with you helping you through everything too. Kavish

Thank you for the video of your father and your letter about his life. It touches my heart because I too lost a selfless soul, a best friend, who nurtured my human spirit ,last month. I was so happy to see the video of your dad because I felt that I could almost touch him through the monitor. He is still alive in your heart and now mine too. He seems so pleasant, always nice to a fault, just like my best friend, who took me in at her place when I first came to Canada. Now I have lost her but I will always look for her everywhere I go, keep her blessings and well wishes in my mind and heart and do it for her as I am sure you will do it for your father. Kavish

Hi Leslie, I am sure you were under tremendous stress all the time because of all the responsibility you had. I could not tell you if your mother or grandpa could have eased any pain because perhaps they themselves were not in a position to make any rational sense of thier own surroundings due to what was happening to them inside with the cancer to your mom and blindness and kidney failure to your grandpa. I would rather reserve judgement on anybody going through such a phase in their lives so I would not blame them for thier actions. I am sure you grieve for them deep inside and I hope in time you would be able to express it outwardly. You just did with your first post. Thanks for the post, Kavish

JR, We all do things to please others. You wish you had done otherwise. But what else could you have done? I believe that you did your best for your Dad.I hope you can find solace in that. Right now it is just between your Dad and you. You did what you had to do to make him proud and thankfully for you, you are continuing with it. Thanks, Kavish

Dear Cml, I lost my best friend a month ago. I do not go to sleep without thinking of her and wake up in the morning knowing she knew that I was there for her when she needed me to be with her. I like to think about her and it makes me grow inside , my heart. I feel her kindness upon me and makes me want to be kind. I will always talk about her all my life even if I am only talking to myself. Thanks for sharing your mom's bond with you and your family and vice versa. I wish you a Happy Canada Day. Kavish

Hi Aries, I would think your mom wanted to make it nice for everybody and I am sure that you do the same for your family. I hope to try and live up to the examples set by my best friend who just passed away recently. She treated everybody the same and took care of everything which if I could just even wish to do, it would make my head spin. But I hope I can learn to do things like her and I will keep trying until I succeed. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Kavish

Dear JR, Keep your spirits up. Up in the memory of your father and your work to make him proud. Keep running as well. Take care, Kavish

Hey Nikol, You have to be strong just as your grand ma would have wanted you to be. I know it is ridiculous for me to tell you that as it is not easy but we all would want to make our loved ones happy and I think they will live on through us. Keep her in your heart and study for the exams. Kavish

Hi Rachael, You did what you could do at the time of your mum passing. I am sure we would all want to do just that much more. I lost my best friend recently, and I love her just as much now as before. Please take heart that you are strong and want to think about your mom and I am sure that you did your best at those times. Thanks for your message, I will never ever forget my friend as I am sure you will never forget your mum. Kavish

Eleanor, You sound like the person who would do anything for anybody. I am sure you did your best. I too lost my best friend just recently, who loved me like a mother, a friend, no body can come close to what she did for me. I used to live at her place as a boarder. I know your mother knows, just as my friend knew, that we always did what was best for them, and I know that they will always know that we will love them no matter what. So I am going to be brave and I will remember my friend forever. As I say nobody can come close. I am sure your mother was the same as my friend. Take care, Thanks for writing, about your self and how much you loved your mother. I will take heart from your letter. Kavish

I wish Uncle Ted a restful journey ahead. Thank you , Uncle Ted.

Hi Nyc and Sherr, My best friend, who physically isn't alive ( who just passed away unexpectedly) but I I will always have the soul / the spirit to live on here on this earth with me. I will do whatever my friend would have wanted me to do. To be brave. To live and smile and be happy inside. Thanks, Kavish
