Thank you all for your support during my dad's horrible disease. Yesterday morning he died. He only suffered for half a day. I'm happy that he didn't suffer long, he didn't deserve it. It seems very surreal at this point. I'm sure the funeral day will be a tough one. He was only 59.

Sean, I am so sorry about the loss of your father.
Once the reality sets in, don't feel obligated to "find closure" too quickly. "Blessed are those who mourn." "Blessed are those who weep now for you will laugh." These quotes are not given to lighten the hurt or deminish your feelings. The tunnel you have entered does not have a light at the other end - the memory of your father is with you forever. Mourning is not blessed because it's good. Rather, when we carry these wounds to God, there is comfort available that runs deeper, richer, and far more lasting than anything we can find by trying to bandage the pain. You know you have the support of your family. You know you have the support of your friends here. Realize that you have the support of God. There is nothing that will cure your earthly hurt, but opening yourself to your heavenly Father when you are in great need can provide amazing fullness in your heart - leaving the memory of your father a highlight in your life, rather than a pain of omission. |
