I feel passing swiftly and peacefully is his parting gift
many thanks to everyone
a surreal day
it has been lovely to pop in from time to time and read your kind words
went to mum's grave to leave two flowers; dad will join her there, as he wished
so tired, so will have an early night
and tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my life
I feel peaceful knowing dad is now at peace, all anxiety lifted
he loved treating his family, and I feel passing swiftly and peacefully is his parting gift
my heart goes out to those who face a different closing of life
I hope that he does fade and have a peaceful passing, we both know from what we've read that it can be a rollercoaster.
My mother shares her name with yours, it was such a common name once, she was one of 4 in her class at school, and now rarely heard (although of course it is on TP)
