CFF Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 So so sorry Alison.My dad is declining so quickly and I can't imagine how you must be feeling even though the inevitable is around the corner.Try to take some comfort in that you were with him, your love for each other, and that he isn't in pain anymore.Lots of love and take carexxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wobblybobbly Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 Thank you so much for all your kind replies. The past few days have been sad, but we have also had a few giggles remembering Dad and the times before the diagnosis 3 months ago. Hard to believe he was gone so quickly really.He is certainly having the last laugh now as he is insisting his ashes are scattered in five different parts of the country, from the highlands of Scotland to Cornwall! We are trying to make the day of his funeral a celebration of his life. He would have wanted us to remember the good times, and not the bad, and so a few drinks will be raised in his memory next Friday.Thanks again, its comforting to know people understand.Alisonxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Hi sorry again for yuor loss--we tried our best to make mum's cremation a celebration of her life and i think we managed it.Still very hard although- that day was slightly easier- everyone hyped up for the funeral--hardest bit is once that is all over.take care Helen xxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSK Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Know what you're going through, dad's funeral is tomorrow (Sat). We had 6 weeks and five of those he spent in hospital. My dad liked a joke too. He had this stuffed cat toy and nobody liked it like dad did. So my mum has put it in with him at the bottom of his feet. Unfortunately she did not tell the undertaker she had put it in and it gave him a bit of a surprise when he had a look after she'd gone My dad would have found it funny. We must keep our chins up and be strong and do our fathers proudRobyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
