HI Monica, There is very little I can say that has not already been said. I am feeling your pain. I am so sorry and can only say you are in my prayers.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Monica. I remember getting "that call", too. (((((((Monica))))))) He is in a better place and he's out of pain. I know you'll miss him, I still miss my Dad, too. But he's still in your heart and you will always have the memories. You're a strong lady, Monica. Many would have succumbed to the junkie in a time like this. You honor your father by remaining true to your quit. Take care of your family. We'll be here if you need us.

Monica, I haven't been able to be online for a couple of days... I'm so sorry to have read the news of your father. You've held so strong, what a great example you are for us here and what a wonderful gift of peace and pride you gave your father. I know that today will be a very difficult one for you. Know that you're in the hearts of many. May God hold you in his hands and comfort you as only He knows how.

Monica, What a wise and strong woman you're being during such a difficult time. As a mom, I know, whether suffering from a smoking related illness or not, how very proud and relieved I would feel if my child smoked and quit. To have that peace of knowing that they've probably saved themselves from repeating the misery that smoking can cause... What a wonderful, wonderful gift you've given your father at a time he needs it most... You and yours are in my prayers.

Monica, I'm just back from out of town and I am so sorry to hear about your father. Just know that he is so proud of you and loves you so much.

Dear Monica, My thoughts are with you across the Atlantic at this worst of all times. I know how awful it is to see your dad, who always seemed so big and strong, weakened beyond belief and shrunk to a shadow - that is part of the horror of cancer. If you can take anything positive from this, please take pride in your quit, for yourself, for your family and most of all for your dad - that he can take some comfort that you will be spared his fate. I'm wishing for a peaceful end for your Dad. Hang tight lady, you are doing brilliantly. I hope that, in spite of everything that is happening, you are still remembering to reward yourself for your milestones. It [u]is[/u] important and you, of all people, do deserve to be rewarded at this difficult time.
