Today at 2:00 pm. my dad lost his battle to Cancer, he went away peacefully, he went into semi coma yesterday and this morning his eyes were blurry and seemed lost. His breathing started to get slower and each breath took a little longer to be heard. Until he took one final breath and that was it, peacefully...like a litle angel..like he went to sleep.
I will miss him for the rest of my life...

Yesterday...on my birthday...The King lost his battle to Cancer at 2 pm. He went away peacefully, little by little the intervals between breathings were longer until there was one last breathing done and no other sound....just silence...
I am going to miss the King...beyond words can describe. He was the greatest dad in the entire world. He was always worrying about me and my well-being. Before his eyes I was the best person in the entire world, I always did things "perfect" for him and he marveled in every little achievement I had, my college graduation, my promotions at work...they were all successes for him...then my marriage and during all my infertility ordeal he was always there...with that quiet support you need during that time, that support that had no words but said so many things.
With my pregnancy it was an every day "are you doing ok?" moment...he loved me beyond words and it is that unconditional love and care I will miss so greatly, our early mornings chat, sending me the important BBC and CNN news by email and keeping me informed of everything that was going on in the world. His faith in me...he trusted me so much that he used me as support whenever he felt he couldn't go on...He loved my writing, my blog was his favorite thing to read and whenever I went on without writing for a while he would say "hey why haven't you updated your blog? I am telling you...you should write a book"
His compliments...it wouldn't matter how ugly I thought I looked...he always said "Ohhhh you look so pretty today"...the way he caressed my pregnant belly even at the hospital two days ago...it was so gentle, so full of love...
Yes...the King will be missed...he took a part of my heart with him, something that cannot be replaced by anything or anybody. I was his little girl...the one that made him proud every minute...Before his eyes I was the human being I wish I could be...he could see more in me than anybody else.
Closing his eyes and giving that "see you later dad" kiss closed a chapter that will be reopened whenever we find each other again...there were so many things left to do, so many things left unspoken, so much love left behind...but I know daddy that this is just temporal and that eventually we will be reunited again.

You loved your father very much. I am sorry for your loss.
I know this may sound weird to you but I was pregnant when my brother was killed. He was stabbed. After my baby was born I had several very realistic dreams. Maybe they weren't dreams. He came to visit me and the baby. We even carried on a conversation several times. He was there plain as day. He told me how beautiful she was, stroked hear hair and that every thing was ok. He told me he loved me and would always be near. No I am not a nut. This really did happen. Look beyond. Your father will be with you. |

Thanks for your words of support...they mean a lot to me. It was my dream that he could meet my child...my first child but it seems it was not written for it to happen that way....

Karolyn,
I am so sorry about the passing of your father. I lost my mom in June. I understand that feeling of loss, of never being someone's little girl again. That " what do I do now?" feeling. You are in my thoughts, and my heart. I wish you peace.

I currently live outside US and today is Father's day here and it's my first Father's day without him....I miss him...probably by now I would have called to say HAPPY FATHER'S DAY and then I would have just spend the day with him, probably cook a meal and go home to give him a gift....but that's not happening, this year as many others to come I will just be going to the cementery to take some flowers....I miss him, yesteday I almost broke down and cried while eatting in BK...he loved BK and Wendy's...are those simple things in life that you start missing

. My father loved to eat at a greasy catfish restaurant. When I came to live with him we ate their almost every Saturday. It is hard to drive past there or to eat there without thinking about how much I would like to be eating with Dad.
