NotCoping Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Sorry it has been so long since I've logged in. After my grandfather died, I went into a nose dive of sorts worried if my grandmother was going through what I went through. I still haven't found a job and was just getting ready to start packing the house headed for somewhere unknown to me when my father was diagnosed with lung cancer. He is terminal, so now I'm going (starting Sunday) to spend four days a week with him. He can't get out of bed and Hospice is taking care of him. Keep me in your thoughts. Love to you all, Mel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daughter2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Hello Mel, So sorry to know what you are going through right now. That's one of the trips you are not joyful about. I went through something similar with my father. Me being out of the country, one phone call one afternoon mom told me to get a plane ticket 'cause dad only had a few days to live. Packing up the suitcase was so difficult. I couldn't help my sadness the entire trip there. But once with my father and tried to make the best of out every moment with him, taking care of him, surround him with love. My thoughts and prayers are with you, give lots lots and lots of love to your father and make sure all of your family stays united through this and after your father passes. -L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad passed three months ago and it feels like it happened yesterday. I do hope you were able to spend quality time with him since his diagnosis. It is a tough experience.
