Mook Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Really, really sorry Daz to hear your news. As you said, you have your family around you and they are the single most important thing right now. I hope you can give your Mum, sister and other members of the family all the support they need - you know that they will be reciprocating this support. Take care and look after yourself.

rothwell Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 It is always very difficult to loose a member of the family, especially someone as close as a parent. My thoughts are with you and your family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Posted August 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 A big thank you all for all your comments here, the PM's, texts, emails and calls received, yes it is a tough time at present but we are getting through it slowly. The funeral next week is the next big hurdle to get over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 ....I think that the funeral will be a 'release' and bring you a sense of 'closure'. It's hopefully a time to celebrate his life and then move on into the peace of never ever forgetting him or stopping loving him for the rest of your life. Never be afraid to cry if it gives you release. Nuff said from me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterb Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Daz, I've just come across this thread, catching up after 3 weeks away from home. I'm so sorry to hear of your sad loss - I know something of what you're going through. Back in 2000, my Dad fell during the night, broke his hip, and was taken into hospital. My mum rang me with the news in the morning. He was due to go into theatre fairly soon so much better, I thought, to visit later in the day. He never fully regained consciousness after the op and caught pneumonia. Four days later, we were advised that there was no hope of recovery and that we should agree to the withdrawal of life support. What a difficult decision to make! I pleaded with the doctors to find some means of treating the pneumonia, even if it meant losing the use of his hip. The answer was 'No'. I still have the two regrets to this day - first of all that I didn't visit before the op, and second that I feel, in some way, responsible for his death, having taken the joint decision to withdraw the life support. You have my sympathies, Daz. I hope, like Robin, that you will make the funeral a celebration of his life, and that it will allow you all to begin to come to terms with your loss.

[/ QUOTE ] ....Very difficult as it is, you must never carry the burden of regret. You did what you believed to be for the best at the time and didn't make your decision lightly - That's all anyone can hope to do. And I feel that the same applies to Daz's decision.

peterb Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Thanks for that Robin ... I know it really - I shouldn't have regrets. My Dad had gone steadily downhill over his last 14 years living with Parkinson's, but it does still hit me sometimes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny11 Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 The one thing you cannot be prepered for in this life is the loss of a close one, but we get through it in one way of another because we have to. my thoughts are with you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Well the funeral went as well as an event such as that can go. And then yesterday we finally buried his ashes. I'd like to thank all those who've sent me best wishes, I really appricate it. Also a very big thanks to all those who made donations to Wessex Heartbeat Also a big thank you to the Funeral directors, Nicholas O’Hara of Wimborne who have made such a difficult experience as painless as possible, I really can't thank them enough.

Scotty Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 I'm glad it went as well as you could expect. Of course no one ever forgets but I hope the healing can now start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 I felt the same about the Funeral Directors who sent off my parents (within a couple of months of each other). They really can make all the difference. Invariably the healing does start now - Goodbyes have been said and there is a sense of closure. At the same time, your Dad will always be with you, Daz .

Wallachie Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 I'm only finding this thread now Daz as I rarely frequent this section of TSN.....I hope things are now a bit easier for you, I suppose it's best to try and remember the good times and be thankful for all the time you had together and all the things you shared.
