do you know where and what you were doing?

not really looking for any feedback other than kind of venting.

a yr ago tonight at exactly 10pm i was holding my dads hand as he took his last breath. probably one of the hardest things ive ever had to do.....

live each day to the fullest with no regrets and make sure you tell the ones you love exactly that. never know when its your time.
 
On Sept 29, at 7:00 am every year, I think of the sun coming up on a beautiful fall morning 17 years ago, when I was holding my dads hand as he took his last breath. Still makes me misty eyed to this day.
 
Prayers to you and your family man. Can't tell you what I did a year ago but what's going on now is extremely clear. My Dad called Thursday night to tell that his lymphoma is out of remission and back. Chemotherepy to start back up later this week. No regrets here and I tell him every chance I get that I wouldn't be the man I am today without his support and love.
 
he was diagnosed with brain cancer and within the yr it happened.
 
Sorry for your loss's, family reunion today with mine. He's 85, we spend some good time together.
 
Life is not always so good... come January it will be 50 years since I got off the school bus and met my mother and a group of neighbors all waiting on our front porch to give me the news that my Dad had keeled over the steering wheel of a Ford tractor. He had a heart attack and his life ended. Today I am watching my mother laying in a nursing home unsure if she will still be here tomorrow. It was a long time ago, but I think dealing with Dad's sudden death was easier than dealing with Mom's dilema. I'm neither venting nor looking for sympathy, but simply emphasizing your point... "live each day to the fullest with no regrets and make sure you tell the ones you love exactly that. never know when its your time." You have the right idea, and we all have to go through this at one time or another.
