my sweet daddy is no longer suffering...

My deepest condolences at the loss of your dad.
I lost mine 2 years ago this April, and I miss him very much. He was in a lot of pain at the end, and very ready for that pain to end. I miss him so much. Be gentle with yourself through the grieving...meditation and breathing will help.
 
When I expressed my condolences yesterday, I didn't mention this. But maybe it will help you. I lost my father in May 2011. He also suffered a lot the last few weeks of his life. It was a relief for him and all of us in the family to see the suffering end.

I just wanted to tell you that the grief and mourning come in waves and can take a long time to process. I'm still grieving and mourning in waves. It could take years, I guess. Whenever I read about the loss of someone else, I get quite emotional. Be gentle with yourself and know that we're all here for you if you need support. :hug2:

I may specially relate with your loss and sorrow, LadyRodgers, because my dad is right now dying from leukemia, with ups and downs and no hope of surviving more than a few days or weeks, at best a few months.

Here is an excerpt from Khalil Gibran, on death :

...what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?

And what is to cease breathing, but to free the breath from its restless tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?

Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.

And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.

And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.

Your mind\soul is aware of your dad, let him go gently...

Take care

I'm sorry to hear about what you're dad and you are going through, Esote. My thoughts and prayers are with you. :hug2:
 
My deepest condolences to you and your family, LadyRodgers. I know how hard it is to lose loved ones and to try and make sense of it all. Take care of yourself and my best wishes.
