    tonight we our preparing to say goodbye to my dad as of this afternoon, the doctors have revoked all active treatments. Dads kidneys have now going in to failure and theres nothing they can do. Were trying to get him home, but been told it will be 48hrs because its the weekend. We dont think he will hold out that long. I would like to thank everyone for there help and support on here over the last few months. Just cant beleive its only been 7mths since he was diagnosed and the end is here.Im not ready to say goodbye, Love you dad always and forever.

    Dear Nicola,

    You must feel desperately cheated that your Dad has not had the chance to fight his way through the available treatments… and your Dad will be feeling the same. I am sure that there are many of us here who know that there were times of touch and go for us… but we got the chance to move on.

    Even at this seemingly late stage I will hope and pray that something turns in his favour.

    Much love to you and all of yours.. especially your Dad.

    Dai.

    Dear Nicola

    Just caught up with your very sad post. If they have put your Dad on the pathway the end must be near. I do hope he goes gently, suurounded as he is, by those who love him.

    May God bless you all. You are in my prayers too.

    Much love.

    Dear Nicola
    I understand how you feel I lost my dad on the 20th December 2011 5 days before Christmas after 27 days in ITU.

    He too had only had the illness from April 2011 we could not beleive what was happening or indeed what has happened – that we lost our most precious dad its so sereal!

    Its still very raw and we cope the best way we know how only time and support will help ease the loss.

    There is nothing I can say to ease the pain and sadness just try and remeber the good times and the things you have done and hopefully like me and my family the pain will ease.

    God Bless
    Wendy x

    Dear Nicola,
    I'm so sorry that it has come to this so soon. I'm also so sorry for not replying sooner. I come on this site every now and then these days since Michael went in Dec 2010.
    I'm still raw but not like you are at this moment.
    Please try and remember your dad in the good days. I went and had some canvas's done and they are on my walls. I say to people I needed them because the person who died wasn't Michael that is Michael.
    I'm slowly getting there so I hope and pray you and your family will too.

    Love and best wishes
    Roz xxx

    This is a difficult time for you and your family, try to concentrate on the good times of which I am sure there were many.
