karma's mom Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 this has been a terrible time for my family and myself, everyday is diffficult , because it seems so surreal..... but then it gives you a wake up call....the only consolation is (if any) he is at peace from all he endured......he was a fighter and my girls fought long and hard for him too..... they were always looking for new avenues , trying to get a second opinion , but we never got that far...... i admire all you people who are fighting also you are the real heroes of the world.....believe me!!! I know how you struggle on bad days to go to radiation and chemo, how intense the pain must be...... but you keep on truckin and move forward... and I applaud you(just like I did my husband for that) god bless you all..... for your smiles, your moment and your determination....bless your families who stand beside you through your journey may they remain strong in your fight...... be happy... and keep that love and support for your loved one.......

Don Wood Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Karma's Mom, glad to meet you, and so sorry you have lost your husband. I have lost both parents and both siblings over the years, and it takes a while to get over the grief. One does heal, but there is always a scar. Reviewing the memories from time to time has helped them stay alive for me as I go on. Blessings. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted June 27, 2003 Share Posted June 27, 2003 Hello Karmas mom and welcome to the board. It is a hard time now and we are here for you to vent, question or etc. One can say you will never get over the tragedy and this would be somewhat correct, however each day you learn how to better cope with it and eventually the pain will lessen and you will be able to go on. memories is now what you have and I am sure that the Great memories outway the recent horrible ones. Use the positive to move on, remember, your daughter needs you as well as you needing her. Be strong for each other and you will make it through this.

Cindy RN Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 You are so blessed to have a family like yours. Lots of cancer patients do NOT get the support they NEED and that is so sad.

kimblanchard Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 There is nothing more hurtful than losing someone we love. And I know this is a "cliche", but time does help. There will be many emotions you'll pass through before you get there though. It won't happen soon, but it will come. We are here for you always. So come let us know how you're doing.
