Announcement

      I've not posted in awhile because my parents have been ill, and two weeks ago I lost them both, two days a part.

     My beautiful mother drifted off in her sleep, and my strong father suffered horribly till we urged him to stop fighting.

     This has been a most terrible and difficult time for me, but I must say if it wasn't for the baby it would have been worse. Both my parents got to meet him right before they died and he has been the one ray of sunshine through all this. I don't know what I'd do without him at this time.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I lost my father 8 years ago on the 21st of this month. My daughter was 11 months old. I too, don't think I could have gone on if it weren't for my baby. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am very sorry for your loss. I lost my dad four years ago and in less than five months my mother passed away as well. So my thoughts are with you at this time.

I'm very sorry that you lost them both. Three years ago on Thanksgiving I saw my dad, 65, for the last time. I was 8 mos. pregnant, and though I knew he would fight his agressive lung cancer with everything he had, I somehow knew he would lose the battle. He asked my husband to take care of me after I left the room. Our son was born January 6, and my dad called me afterwards. He was in the hospital for edema, and his condition worsened until he could not fight it any more. He died a week later, and since the birth was a c-section and I swelled badly, I was unable to go to the funeral. Then my husband's 87-year-old father passed away 6 weeks later of pneumonia.

Our son was a source of immeasurable comfort to us both.

My very deepest condolences to you and your siblings, your children and the rest of your extended family.
I am so very glad that baby got to meet grand parents and that they got to see the result of their love before they died.

Take care of yourself at this time.

I wasjsut passing your blogg via entrecard and saw your post. I am so sorry for you. It must be such an horrendous loss with both parents passing within such a short time of each other. They are together though again, without pain and that you can be thankful. Take Care of that beautiful baby.
