Hey everyone, I'd posted a topic not too long ago and I just want to thank everyone for replying, it's helped. Unfortunately, dad didn't survive that day when he was taken to the hospital. I actually wrote that post the morning of his death, which would've been almost three weeks ago now. I decided to tell all my friends, and they've all been so supportive. My teachers know as well so I didn't need to write my exams, what a relief!
Yeh so, I really want to thank everyone again for your advice and at least taking some time out of your day to reply. |

Oh Sweetie, I'm so sorry.
I said a prayer for you and your Dad this morning as I'm sure many here did.
He is Just Away
I cannot say, I will not say
That he is dead. He is just away!
With a cheery smile
And a wave of the hand
He has wandered into an unknown land
And left us dreaming how very fair
It needs must be,
Since he lingers there;
So think of him faring on, as dear
In the love of There as the love of Here
Think of him still
As the same, and say
He is not dead, he is just away.

The morning your father passed away, my twin sister and myself were having our last birthday party together eating icecream and cake. You see we are twins, and she was dying with cancer. I got to Texas on the 4th of June, we had our birthday together on the 8th of June and on the 11th of June my sister died. I am feeling your loss and keeping you in my prayers every night. You are so young to have to have dealt with the loss of a father. My neice and nephew also are having a hard time. I came back to Washington on July 3rd, but the loss is still so fresh in my mind also. Your father is watching over you now. He is one of your angles. My sisters prayer was:
Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle Autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.
You have angles looking over you. I am so sorry for the loss in your family. |
