    My father passed away yesterday morning, around 6am. He battled the ugly devil that is cancer for a little over a year. He held on for quite a long time considering the only treatment he was eligible for was one 6-week round of radiation. Aside from that, there was no treatment. Just a year ago he was up and walking around and laughing with us all, and over the past couple of months he was mostly bed ridden, and now he's left this life. I just wanted to say something here, even though I'm not as active as I'd like to be here. I'm not much of a familiar face, but I've been around CP for a long time. I hope you all have a wonderful day, and cherish your life and the lives of those you care about, every day.

        This is how you can remember him and be glad that you were a part of the shared laughter.

        It was broke, so I fixed it.

          Absolutely. I'm sure many of us know what it feels like. It's hard. But I have nothing except amazing memories, and those will help get through. :) Thank you.

                  I'm a firm believer in that. I'm happy that I had already thought that way before all this happened. Otherwise, I would probably hold it against myself for not taking the time to realize how thankful I was for him in my life. Thank you very much, Marc.

                            I'm sorry to hear of your loss. In just over a week I will be taking a trip to honor my wife's father's last wishes. He passed away from complications due to cancer as well. It will be a year this upcoming October. I know exactly how you feel, just a month before it happened, he was up and active and joking. We were talking about how in less than a year he was going to walk his daughter down the aisle for our wedding. It is hard and doesn't get much easier. That said, remember the good, the happy, and the fun. As hard as it was, I know from the bottom of my heart that at least in our case he never would have wanted to see us sad. So that evening we opened a few finely crafted beers, had a New York style pizza, and laughed and joked... and even cried a little. Don't mourn his passing, honor the life he led. :rose: Feel free to drop me a line if you need. :rose:

                                  Your thoughts are so very true, and I agree 100%. That helps me out greatly, and it's much appreciated. I definitely plan to relive our best memories together over the past 27 years. My family will be gather at my house this Sunday for a sort of informal memorial. Food, fun, plenty of children, laughter, jokes, and sharing our greatest memories of my father. I mean, great memories are the only memories anyone has. He lived only to selflessly help others and make others happy. Thank you so very much, RJOberg.

                                    Sorry for your loss. :rose: Illness sucks: My grand-father died from Alzheimer two weeks ago. A month from now, he still would recognize us. Two weeks later, we were total strangers to him, or at least, he did not react anymore.

                                    I think words like 'destiny' are a way of trying to find order where none exists. - Christian Graus Entropy isn't what it used to.

                                    I'm sorry for your loss as well. My dad's mother passed from Alzheimer's a couple years ago. However, she always remembered her older family members. She only ever had trouble remembering the young (<5 years old) great-grandchildren. That's a tough time as well, and I wish you and your family the best, too.

                                        My father passed away yesterday morning, around 6am. He battled the ugly devil that is cancer for a little over a year. He held on for quite a long time considering the only treatment he was eligible for was one 6-week round of radiation. Aside from that, there was no treatment. Just a year ago he was up and walking around and laughing with us all, and over the past couple of months he was mostly bed ridden, and now he's left this life. I just wanted to say something here, even though I'm not as active as I'd like to be here. I'm not much of a familiar face, but I've been around CP for a long time. I hope you all have a wonderful day, and cherish your life and the lives of those you care about, every day.
