I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot really put into words how I feel at this moment. God be with you.

It’s not easy to say anything to put things into perspective, so I won’t try. Just know that I will keep you in my prayers. And yes, Gwen Ifill is a media whore. But I fail to see how she is any different than the rest of the Obamagasmic hordes… Someone once told me my serenity is inversely proportional to my expectations. I don’t expect a fair fight therefore I am able to keep on keeping on with relative peace. And a rec…

Swamp_Yankee, my Dad passed away in March at 83 and my 14 year old dog passed away in June. It's personally been a sucky year as I deal with a 3 of 4 kids in college and Mom in a nursing home with stage 6 Alzheimer's Disease.

Half the time she doesn't know Dad is gone and the other half she makes up and tells everyone about the gruesome way he died. None of it true. He passed away in the hospital. I am holding on to his ashes until my Mom passes. They were inseparable in life and they should be that way in death.

Sometimes life just sucks.

But, the sun always rises on a new day. It always does whether we want to acknowledge it or not. Even if it is obscured by dark and heavy clouds, it always rises. That's what gets me through. The promise that tomorrow things may or may not get better but tomorrow will come and I might as well get on with it.

My dad passed away 3 years ago & I STILL miss him !!

I was the last family member to talk to him before he died with the Ambulance crew working on him, Till this second I don't know what made me stop at his room & tell him I love you Dad & we were waiting for the Ambulance to show up & he said I love you too Eric last thing he said before he passed away I am tearing up just typing that.

I know it is tough & i get EASIER, BUT it NEVER gets EASY

You & your family are in my Thoughts & Prayers !!!!!!!!!!!!!

And my heart goes out to you.
I buried my mom in 2000, 4 days after she turned 51 and a mere 21 days after giving birth to my youngest child. It was the worst experience of my life.
She was my rock and I still miss her terribly.
But life does go on and we live it to the fullest to make them proud.

And yes, Gwen Ifill is a media whore.

My parents are in their 80's and I know it's just a question of time before I will be in your shoes, too. And I know that, as hard as it is on you to lose both in such a short time, if they are like my folks, then it's a blessing that one will not have to live on without the other.

My folks have been married since 1947--for either to do without the other would be painful beyond belief. You are in my prayers.

Very sorry.

Mine are at the age that I need to start worrying. For me, they've been the only real constant for 41 years of my life.

I can't say I know how ya feel, but as I was trying to put myself in your shoes, I quickly realized that is someplace that I don't want to be.

On the brighter side of things, and back to your point, I fully agree with you on the Gwen thing!

Your parents taught you well. May God grant them Eternal Memory and Blessed Repose. My prayers are with you during this difficult time.

There's a couple of great diaries in their story somewhere, my story. Until then. Maybe redstate will organize some kind of cruise like NRO or just some pub crawl somewhere.

Thank you for your kind spirit.
