I lost my dad to cancer too many many years ago. He was 38 years old and such a handsome man. 6'1, big and strong. The cancer and chemo took all that strength away. As a teen, I couldn't bear to see him that way and didn't want to go to the hospital much. It was just too painful. <br /><br />You and I have had a tough week .... both with heavy hearts. <br /><br />The thing to take from all of this is that you and I are healthy and the sun will shine on us tomorrow. And that, Ms Dixie, I embrace. Have a beautiful week.cottage farm villahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18421843400178564923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8131567634073227091.post-52541548313520200962009-04-26T19:29:00.000-05:002009-04-26T19:29:00.000-05:00Dixie,

My in-laws also did an excellent job in estate planning, and I've always been grateful to that unknown planner...it has enabled my MIL to be comfortable. (now, if we could just destroy her credit cards...she's in excellent mental and physical health, she just likes to shop ;D). I contrast that with my own parents who didn't do a very good job, and my father's cancer ate up a good deal of their savings for what insurance didn't cover.

So many people don't have that help when they reach the end. So many spouses are left with out a future and in her condition she will need the help. Thank the Good Lord you were there to let him know about a durable power of attorney. So many elderly people do not think about little things like that. It is sad and you will miss him, but He is lucky to have someone as caring as you taking care of him.Marjorie (Molly) Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08876434453158175693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8131567634073227091.post-71120443385965461982009-04-25T17:15:00.000-05:002009-04-25T17:15:00.000-05:00Oh Dixie, this is so sad.

I too say prayers and cry. Then I try hard to remember, that what I did for them when they were here is the best I could do. You gave this gentleman peace. That's the best gift a person can give. God Bless you for your service. He and his family will always be blessed by what you do. I'm sure they will and have always said Thank You.
