I had planned to be a better blogger this year........so now it is nearly the end of January.....and this is my first post.......

My Dad passed away on January 6........




It is very hard to see someone you love so much go from a strong happy hard working man who loved his family and gardening.....to a weak and frail man in 6 months.....who still had a strong will to live.......Dad never thought of himself as an invalid.....he said that he was just dying from cancer.....in the end it was too much for him to fight and Dad was ready to join my brother Peter and my sister Christine in a new journey.....we all miss him so much......

  5. Thanks for sharing your pictures and feelings Cathy. You're right, it is very hard to watch helplessly as a loved one loses that battle with cancer.
