Losing my Dad (Cancer's a bitch Part 2)

[Green Arrow]

Hi i wrote the first part of this a couple weeks back (SEE HERE (http://virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=207429))and literally the day after unfortunately my dad passed away at around 10PM on Friday 9th May 2014, after a 2 year battle with cancer. He was a very brave man even when he was at his worst he was still cracking sarcastic jokes and bossing my mum about, even until the last few days. He was always thinking of others, never himself! He is my hero and always will be.

I just wish that I had more time to spend with him when he was well. I just feel like crap for that. So much time wasted that i could've spent with him rather than playing video games or just sleeping. I felt terrible. I'm slowly coming to terms that I did what i could when I could but it's still hard.

Thank you all for your support in the other thread as well it means a lot to me. :)

I'm sorry to hear that man. I know someone who is like a second father to me that is battling cancer. I really do feel your pain.

I'm so sorry, Tom. Just be brave, think about how proud he would be of you if you kept moving on with your life and being an amazing person he wanted you to be. We will always be here for you. (:

Oh, Tom, I'm so, so sorry. I can't even imagine what that feels like.
Of course you did everything you could. You couldn't donate 100% of your time to him, and you knew this was coming, so you knew that then, too. I hope you're starting to feel a little bit better.

I'm sorry about your loss Tom. I too know what it's like to lose a father. Cancer is a tough battle to fight. I recently lost my grandfather back in December of last year from prostate cancer that went to his bones 2 months before his passing. I know what you're going through right now.

You did everything you could and what you can do from here on out is keep him in your heart and in your thoughts. His body may not be with us, but the memories will last forever. His soul will last for as long as you want. Thinking of him in his highs and not his lows will keep his spirit alive.

Keep your head up & stay strong

I'm here for ya if you need it :hug:

I'm so, so, so sorry to hear that. I'm so happy you were able to make the most of your last moments with him, even if they weren't as many as you'd have liked.

He'll forever live on in your heart; I'm sure he's looking down on you. Remember the good memories you have with him, and don't harp on the bad. We can't change the past.

Again, I'm so sorry for your loss, and my PM box is always open. x

[Stronger]

I'm really sorry to hear about your dad, always remember he is with you in heart and spirit. Don't forget to keep his memory alive with good times and laughs, and never look back at anything bad.

Dear Tom,
Your dad was certainly a hero; somebody worth being inspired from.
My sincere condolences to you and relatives.

[Dalcourt]

I'm so sorry for your loss. Your Dad really seemed like a great person, so remember him as the strong person he was and remember the good times you had with him...
