Grieving
I have just lost my father two months ago. He went to the hospital in February - had hope he could beat it, then learned he contracted Hep B and now had cirrhosis. Because of the cirrhosis there was nothing he could do. I remember him calling my daughter who was 4 months at the time, his "Big, baby bird." It is so hard not having him here to see his 3 grandchildren grow. But it is also hard to grieve for him because I try to keep everything in so i can focus on the kids. It seems to hit me the most if i happen to be driving in the car by myself. One thing though that I see is what a blessing my daughter is. When my dad was dying - my family would be able to have some glimmer of hope and happiness through her. she would just smile and light up the room, she still does, and it helps me get through the day.

I can relate to what you are saying. I lost my dad to cancer four months ago. Our son PJ was 9 months. He would call every other day and ask about him. He would say "how's our PJ doing?"
Even though he knew the cancer was inoperable and incureable he fought it with everything he had. He lived 2 years, 10 months and 2 days with stage 4 esopageal cancer.

I know what you are all going through, I lost my mom in October. I told her I was pregnant 2 weeks before she died. To make things worse her family blames us for her death and wants nothing to do with us (dad and sister).....it has been so hard lately for me, I wake up and pick up the phone but I can't call her. I have to be strong so that I can be a good mommy to Molly. But its just so hard!!

September 14th, I found my father dead, in his home. After arguing with a 911 operator to get someone out there, and doing the same with a accusatory medical examiner, I was raw all thru. And the actions of a greedy son,and his wife, I hit that last nerve ending. Now, I never got to bawl it out. Makes it harder to clean out my dad's house. Just hanging in there. hoping I don't botch things too badly!
