      Liver Cancer

      Well my grandpa died last night. He has slowly been dying for the last couple of months from liver cancer. Death is such a terrible suffering in this world. I shared what I could with him about the hope that I hold onto and he had made his choice. I have peace in knowing that he knew his options before making up his mind.
      I had only had the pleasure of knowing him for three yrs. It was nice knowing him, but in all truth I never really got to know him. When I first met him I was still suffering from bipolar, and I had an episode. What a first impression huh? But we worked it out, and I no longer have bipolar after that year so he was able to meet the real me. Praise Yahweh for that. Then earlier this year I found out that he has liver cancer. Seeing he was an alcoholic it shouldn't be a surprise. Then towards the end everyone including him just waited for him to die. He was ready too..now he got his wish. It is so sad to see that the only hope he had was in the grave. I have been there, but there is real hope. But he made his choice and I love him anyways. I am glad I came on here. I guess I needed to get this off my chest. RIP grandpa no matter how brief it may be.

      If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it will always be yours.
      If it doesn't come back, it was never yours to begin with.
      But, if it just sits in your living room, messes up your stuff, eats your food, uses your telephone,
      takes your money, and doesn't appear to realise that you had set it free.....
      you either married it or gave birth to it.

      I came.....I saw.....I Gave Up!!! :bunny:

      Thank you all for your kind words. Yes my grandpa was a kind soul. I am grateful for what little time I had with him. Praise Yahweh for that.

      Sorry to hear about the loss of your grandpa Daphna - I am glad you have the solace that you did everything that you could for him, and he understood his choices and options
      You Are Precious

      The truth is, concerning our value and worth - that EVERYONE is valuable and worthy because they are a part of Creation....... we all just need some healing from our collective mistaken identity

      "You call my name
      I come to You in pieces
      so that You can make me whole.
      You can make sense of who I am - when I see Your face I know I'm finally Yours and I find everything I thought I had lost You for"
