a post for absolut

I have sat down time and time again to write this post but i havent yet managed to put it in th right words, hopefully this time it will work.
You knew about my dads illness from a while ago when I was having a rough time and you helped me out with advice and an understanding of my situation and feelings that no-one else had shown.
For this I will be eternally grateful.
Thank you.
My dad died on christmas eve, and although it is sad I have to appreciate the release it has given him after his illness.
I dont know yet how I am going to feel about his absense, he was so far removed from his old self in the final stages of his illness that the feeling of loss has been there for some time.
The problem I was having when you helped me was the emotional problems I was suffering dealing with his condition and illness and hence I was not seeing him in his final days. What you told me turned me around howevr and shortly before he died I started going to the hospital again and feel lucky to have seen him on the evening preceeding the morning he died.
I dont know exactly why I wanted to post this rather than send you an email, but it has something to do with opening up, not just keeping my problems to myself which was my biggest downfall in all of this.
Again I thank you.

Sounds like you are dealing with the loss fairly well now. It is well you are healing and he is not suffering.

I don't know what your spiritual beliefs are, but God Bless & Keep You and Yours during this life-moment of grief.

In Love & Truth,
Em

Harsh…I’m so sorry. This time must be surreal and confusing for everyone.
I’m glad I was somehow able to help you do what you needed to do, for both of you.
I’m just about to email you.
*hugs*

Death sucks. Especially death that is expected, long and slow. My man's father died december 13th this year. The holidays will never be the same.

Harsh, I'm so sorry about your father. But I'm so happy absolut was there for you, when you needed someone. She is indeed a wonderful friend, and a beautiful person.

In the name of redundance, *hugs* to you.

I was thinkin' something along those lines too as I read it. Something like:

God has let your father rest, dear...and to help you with your grief, given you an awesome friend.
