I intend to let go of expectations and roll with the punches.
WHY? Dealing with my Father's final days can be at the very least both taxing and emotional. The ideal of how I want to spend these days, or what I have invisioned are not in fact a reality. I need to remind myself, take a breath, stay calm, and be present.
HOW TO HELP: oooooh. I could probably rant here. By not staring, or telling me how horrible my Dad looks, or comparing him to their sister's boyfriend's cousin's neighbors uncle's condition. But then I look at what I just typed and think wah, wah, wah. People can help by continuing to to surprise me at how helpful and thoughtful they can be. Considerate too!
INSPIRATION: My mother. She's amazingly tolerant, and comforting to my Father. She takes SUCH good care of him. She looks for the best, takes all of her kids (6 of us, and 13 grandchildren) into account. She is the most amazing person I will ever be blessed to meet.
Yes! Good Job Baczekeliz. You are an Angel amongst us here. Your Mom sounds like a blessing to All. Best Wishes to You and Your Family.

I lost my father to Pancreatic Cancer 11 years ago this past March. It isn't an easy experience at all--- letting go of those we are so close with. I had the honor of helping my father with his pain through giving him Reiki sessions. He was a skeptical man; however, after having the first session and getting a lot of pain relief, he was always asking when I would come again and give him more! Looking back as helpless as it seemed for him, it was such an eye-opener and showed me first hand how Reiki does help in even the worst of circumstances. I am sad to hear what you are going through. I will gladly send you and your family and your Dad Reiki Distance Healing if you would like. Please simply 'post comment', and state your Father's full name, and anyone else, and I will put you into my daily Reiki Crystal Grid that sends healing and help 24/7 that I recharge every morning. May the Angels also assist you and yours!!! :-)

wow...what an honor and blessing to read all the comments here. I am so sorry for this part of your journey. I lost my mom 2 years ago but was fortunate and honored to walk her through and to her passing. Be gentle with yourself because this is also a very beautiful time. His next journey will leave you all new blessing for your next.

Sorry I'm a little late in commenting here, but your story so reminds me of my Dad, when he was in his final days, and my Mom, who was so strong...and me, trying my best to support them both while living a busy life of my own. I truly relate, and please know, that you, your Dad and your Mom are in my prayers...sending healing Light too...x
