I'm very sorry to hear both about BKB's mother and Hawg's father. Both of your families are in my thoughts and prayers. Please don't ever hesitate to reach out to the BP community in a time of need.

sorry BKB and exhawg... these are not easy times...

make sure you tell them thanks for all they did...

and BKB... you can tell your Mom you'll appreciate her looking over your family every hour of every day now...

exhawg, I wish I had words...

I assume the other parent is still around in both cases... if so, make sure you make huge effort to keep around that parent.. they will need immeasurable support... and they will need it immediately and constant thereafter...

I am so, so sorry, BKB. We've talked privately about this, so I knew that she didn't have much time. You never want to hear that the end is near. I remember the exact day that I found out my dad was terminal. And toward the end (his last few days), I couldn't even see him because it hurt too damn much -- I wanted to remember the healthy dad, the one that recognized me and wasn't so drugged up. (I was in high school and the time, so I, selfishly, was too immature to really understand my poor decision making). I really, really regret not being with him, because I don't get that back -- and I will live with that guilt for the rest of my life. It's great that you've spent so much time with your mother. That's the best that you could have done for her. What a strong lady, and lucky to have you as her son. I will say a prayer for her (and your family) tonight.

Wow, this is horrible news. I am very sorry that you all have to go through this. I will most certainly keep you in my thoughts and prayers. It is a terrible thing to lose a loved one, and I pray God will give you, your mother, and your family the strength to get through it. Like GD said, she is most certainly going to be in a much better place.

With all the celebrities getting punched in the face and inventions being credited to Al Gore, it's easy to forget that people have to go through hell sometimes. But then, I guess that's why I like BP so much.

Goes without saying - hawg, BKB, you have my sympathies.

This is why I love this place. Even know a lot of us havent even met we can all stick together through a keyboard and monitor.

My thoughts and prayers are with both of you.

Stay strong BKB I have both my parents, but know what it is like to lose a loved one. Keep your spirits and be there for your mom the best you can.
