Thank you. He certainly had my prayers. I’m hoping he saw that beam of light at the end because my sister was yelling at him not to go and to stay and he shook his head no. Maybe he saw the light and was ready to step into it.
Oh Melian,
That’s awful. Especially the part about you sister wanting him to stay. That couldn’t have been helpful.
Was your dad in a hospice facility? My dad was in one and they were great in that terrible time.
Dad was barely able to speak in the last couple of weeks. He clearly said, “Go away” his last day. It was always his wish to die alone. I couldn’t convince my dear brother to leave him. I kissed Dad goodbye and left my brother alone with him at midnight. My brother left, exhausted, at 2:30 a.m. Dad died within a half hour later, on his own terms.
Your father most certainly experienced the same thing. He saw the beauty of what lies beyond this place. God bless you and your family. I wish you healing in the days ahead.
