I've never had to deal with anything that difficult in my life and I'm guessing things seem somewhat surreal right now. I hope your wife has a swift recovery and try to celebrate your father's life as best as you can. Please keep us updated on her recovery.
My Dad has been in hospital four times in the last six months. The first time he was on life support for ten days. That was the saddest ten days of my life. I basicly lived in ICU waiting room for a week. He is doing fine now. I know you hurt, but it will get better. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Hang in there.
I hope this is the end of your heartache and pain and only the best for you in the future. Thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
I was in your situation about a year ago, this board was a source of support and encouragement. I wish the same for you. May God bless you and your family with comfort, peace, and hope.
That's really tough, drox. Very sorry to hear all this. You family needs you more than ever. Be strong.
Wishing I could do something besides say I'm sorry. Be there for your wife and kids. We'll be here for you. Prayers sent.
this is particularly great and touching. also, it's no surprise what kind of person your dad raised, evidenced by him travelling back and forth to provide support for his son during your wife's surgery.
That's such a terrible tragedy. It's good to see that you are seemingly handling it well. I hope your wife has a speedy recovery and the rest of 2012 treats you and your family better than the last few weeks.
I'm sorry, man. Like many have said, I wish I could do more than just a 'sorry'. You're in my thoughts.
This is very sad news, but you are being strong for your family and doing your father proud. I hope that you keep reaching out for support. It's not easy to be the rock for everybody else. Good luck to you and your family moving forward.
I surely do hate to hear that man. I am thinking of happier times when we drank too many beers and ate burritos in Chicago that time and I am thinking good thoughts for your wife and for your dad. I paraphrase Daniel Johnston: "Even when the jokes were bad, think of all the fun you've had." Let me know if you want to rap over a coffee. It would be great to see you again.
Sorry for your loss, I can never imagine what you're going through. The worst thing you can do is trying to justify and explain why this happened to you, many people have tried but all failed to explain why bad things happen to good people.
