My dad died at 2:30 am this morning. I have more to say, but didn't want one moment to pass without telling everyone that without this board on some days, I would have lost my mind. This board saved my mental and emotional health, and I'll check back in in a few days. Love and hugs to other caregivers who are in the good fight.

He told when he was gone, I would cry and cry, he was so right!
With time the pain lessons but the void remains the rest of our days.
Remember the good times, they help keep you going.
God Bless !
This helped me alot:1 Thessalonians 4:13-18New International Version (NIV)
Believers Who Have Died
13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. 14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15 According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.

My deepest condolences. I just lost my dad last Thursday and I agree; w/o this site to come to on a daily basis ~ Just to read a little bit of what others were going thru ~ I would've never had made it mentally.
Now just remember to take care of yourself for the next few days. You won't remember much of what people say to you but just one foot in front of the other for a few more days! Much Love ~ Joni
