Frankodragon's Blog Stuffs

I'm very sad reading your blog.

 

I don't like to talk about my father, I lost him twice: when he left me at 6 years old and when he died four years ago.

 

 

And I also lost my mom six years ago, I had 26, so I know how rough it is. All I can say is be strong and keep remembering these good memories.

 

I'm sure your father was proud with you and I'm sure this made him happy. I also get better when I remember my mom being so proud of his son even in the hospital.

 

 

But at the end, as rough as life can be, there will always be hope and better days.

Now I'm going to become a first time father in 4 months.

What a great testament to your dads life. It seems that he certainly got the most important bits right in raising a family and providing for their needs. When a mans life on this walk is drawing to an end there is no better way to leave than having loved ones around and knowing he did his best for them and that they love him.

 

True Spiritual Love is the most powerful force in existence and when someone gives or receives it, unbearable pain, suffering, and disease are flooded away and replaced by true peace and contentment when most needed. Nothing is going to stop your sadness when your father leaves, but that's how it should be when a life departs this planet who has touched others with their love. Just keep telling your dad you love him while you can and comfort your mother with your love. Your mum is also probably much stronger than you ever thought possible (most mothers are), don't be afraid to accept her comfort and love in return.

 

My own dad passed away eight years ago in hospital riddled with cancer. Luckily his pain and suffering was over fairly quickly as he hated hospitals. I used to sit and read beautiful passages from the Bible to him which also seemed to benifit some of the other patients. He passed away with his family around his bedside having lived his life on his own terms. As he departed a new life was born into a family which will one day be faced with the same eternal question of being mortal, I just hope they live, love, laugh, cry, seek happiness to the full while they're together.

 

I send your family all my love as a fellow human being to help ease your pain now and in the days to come. I also hope you build on the support your father gave you over your career move and use it to inspire yourself and your students to new heights of creativity and success. While on the musical subject and with your reference to a Pastor, I would like to mention that God (or as I say Heavenly Father) loves music, the Holy Scriptures are full of how good it makes him feel, so you and your dad have certainly chosen a great path to walk.

 

Love, Tony

Update- What a difference! Today he was awake and talking. He's still in pain but he can move a little bit so that's a real good start. I thought that day before was the last day of his life. For families, you have to stick together and support each other no matter how big or small a family is. That and faith do play a big part in healing.
