Still holding his hand....

This is, quite truthfully, the most incredible, painful, beautiful, humbling, exhausting and exquisite experience of my life. I am honoured to be spending this time with my dad. My testimony of the existance of a living God and His son, Jesus Christ is so strengthened I am ( for now) at a loss as how to describe it.
I am home to put my boys to bed, to love my husband and gather some strength for the next stage.
Thankyou for your words and sincere comfort and support. It is giving me the strength to give it back to those around me who need it too.

May your family find peace in this time of great sorrow.
Death this year has taken men
Whose kind we shall not see again.
Pride and skill and friendliness,
. . . wisdom and delight,
Are shining still, but shining less,
And clouded to the common sight.
Time will show them clear again.
Time will give us other men
With names to write in burning gold
When they are great and we are old,
But these were royal-hearted, rare
Memory keeps with loving care
Deeds they did and tales they told.
But living men are hard to spare.
