God’s abundant blessings your father and you, Danae.
Thanks for your remarkable words.
Thank you for your gracious message at such a difficult time.
I was with my Dad when he passed away last year. I considered being with him through those last days the privilege of my life.
Thank you, Danae, for sharing your beautiful and moving experiences with your FR family.
God bless you.
God bless you (and it sounds like He has).
Beautifully written. Your dad’s in a better place and he is happier than he has ever been. God bless your whole family and your dad’s departed soul.
**Thank you for the honor of being Brian’s daughter, I prayed. Thank you for the gift of being able to say goodbye, and know my dad was and is so proud of me! Thank you for allowing me to witness my fathers re-birth into a creature of spirit and love. Thank you for the gift of being present for such a miracle!
I am in awe.**
Danae, I am in awe! Being a writer even showed up in this. What a wonderful account!
May the Lord be with you, your mom and your entire family, and may the souls of your dad and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
It is me who is grateful.
I either am not greiving, cannot grieve, or something ....I don’t know. I am not sad though I cry. I am so happy for him!
I am really sad for my mom, who is just busted up, but laughing and loving all at the same time.
Awe. Who know that one could gain and be given so much through the “loss” of a loved one?? Awe... It will take me a long time to really process what I have experienced in the last 60 hours or so. I suppose the fact that I have slept only about 5 hours in that time might have something to do with it LOL... I sat up with him all night wednesday... I would have gotten up at 5am that morning... sigh... lol.
Awe. I thank you God!
Thank you GOP_Lady! :)
Thank you for such a touching story, Danae. My prayers are with you and your family at this time.
Thank you Salvation!
God bless you too! You have seen that scene yourself, and your grace is an inspiration to me!
Thank you! I know exactly what you mean!
Awe..... :) it is a privilege. 100%
What a beautiful story to share with us. Thank you. God blessed your family and now holds Brian in His loving arms.
My Father died a little over five years ago from lung cancer.
He was never one to express his feelings or emotions. His love for us was just understood.
On a Thursday night in late May of 2005, as my Mother was putting him to bed, he said.....”I Love You”
He passed the next day.
He knew.
Prayers from my family to yours.
May God bless your mom and family.
Very touching in every way....some things of life go to the very heart and soul...this is one of those. Thank you for sharing this.
Condolences to you and your family on your father’s passing. May he rest in peace.
It’s really moving that you are happy for father.
That’s how he wants you to be. :-)
You have such a wonderful attitude and spirit.
Keep it always.
Your father and your mother, I know, are proud of you.
God bless you and your family and your precious father, Danae.
I understand. My mother-in-law passed away on May 25th after a five year battle with Lewy Body Dementia. It was a very tough journey for the family. She is free now to be with God and endure no more suffering.
