Morning everyone,
I'm feeling very emotional at the moment and in need of a little support. Dad has bowel cancer spread to liver and stomach lining. I have just spent the weekend with him with my husband and children. I have come away feeling so sad. I cant stop crying and my mind wont switch off.
How do I cope with watching him deteriorate? Watching him become someone else? My children adore him, as do I. It is just so unfair, he is the best father a girl could ask for, and best papa my children could ever have wanted.
I pray for a miracle, as the thoughout of months or just a few years left with him is simpy not enough, and quite honestly heart wrenching. I wanted my son to go out and experience working with him like I did as a child, I wanted him to make my daughter feel like a real life little princess, like he did with me.
He has been so supportive and loving to my husband, and been there for him when he needed it the most.
Why is this so cruel?
My poor mum, she will be alone. They have been together 40 years and have overcome the loss of a child together, and built a lovely life together, and have finally found happiness in their grandchildren. And now this?
I am heart broken.
