My step-dad is gone

| It's a blessing, really. He had no quality of life this last 6 weeks or so. Mom is doing just fine, although I know she will miss him terribly once everything calms back down.
For those of you that are not familiar, Frank was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in July. They did surgery to remove it, but it got him anyway.
Saddest of all of this is that his daughter's husband passed away unexpectedly on Saturday from medical issues that he has been dealing with for years. He was in his 50's. Poor girl lost her husband on Saturday and her dad on Sunday. I can't even imagine how painful that must be!

| I'm so, so sorry to hear this. Frank, I hope, had his full measure of years. Still it's so hard to say goodbye. The loss of his son-in-law is really tragic. His wife must be devastated. Take good care of yourselves. I'm sorry for your losses. |

I'm very sorry to hear about your step-dad. We almost lost mine this weekend, and it's still touch and go, so I'm getting a glimpse of what you're going through. It's hard.

| My thoughts are with you and your mom during this very difficult time. I had so hoped that Frank and your mom would have a few good months together after his diagnosis. My condolences to your family. |
RE: My step-dad is gone

| Thank you everyone. These next few days will be rough on mom and Pam, but they'll get through it with the support of their families and the "cyber-support" of friends like you all. Yes, we were all hoping that the surgery would give Frank some more quality time, but the "higher powers" had other plans for him, apparently. I'll make sure the family knows they have lots of hugs coming from all over the globe. Thanks again. Linda |

| Well, the funeral is over, it was a nice service. Tomorrow my kids get to drive to South Dakota to attend their paternal Grandfather's funeral. He passed away yesterday. Yep...two Grampa's in one week. People say it happens in threes, and I'm beginning to believe it!. What a weird bunch of events..... |

Linda, I'm more than a bit late coming into this thread and in the past, I almost never checked the Conversations forum. I want to convey my deepest sympathy. I am so very sorry...
