hey all, just wanted to let you all know that my dad did pass away 3 weeks ago. He fought really hard because he wasn’t ready to go but finally was able to find some peace before letting go.
Thank you all so much for your help along that way. This journey was so much shorter than I would have hoped but I’m thankful to have gotten the 1 year and 8 months that we did. I hope you all continue to do well and get better <3

Sorry to hear this. I'm sure he appreciated your presence. I hope your family finds peace in his passing. Thanks for taking care of him. Wife and I take care of my 92 year old dad and I just can't imagine the day he leaves us. My families condolences.
as a loving daughter myself I am so devastated to read this. I know your dad had a really really tough journey and I’m sorry that this was the outcome. Prioritize your mental health and try to find comfort in friends and family. I am so sorry 💔
Thank you so much for telling us , this forum gives strength to so many , never forget you have all those lovely memories, my love to you and all the family ❤️Xxx.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Your dad has no more pain. May he rest in peace. The caring and watching your loved one decline or in pain is traumatic. It can take time to process that trauma with the grief of one's loss. May you find the strength and support to do that. Sending virtual hug to you. 🙏
sending all my love and hugs to you and your family it’s a horrible time I get through every day just thinking my hubbys pain was over the trouble is ours just begins but you learn to live with it and carry on he will always be with you because he made you so a little piece of him is in you and that can never change xx
I m deeply pathetically sorry for his passing I do feel the transition was more important for both .His peaceful acquisition was he had a great caregiver in those delicate times. Thank you for your love and sometimes it takes a lot .
I am so sorry for your loss. When things begin to change for the worse quickly, it is very difficult because you lose one of the most important things-time! Please know that being there for your Dad, fighting at his side, was a special gift to give him. It means so much ❤️🩹. Wishing peace to you and your family!
I am truly sorry for your loss. I too have a dear loved one dealing with this disease, and it is extremely difficult. He was blessed to have you in his corner, and I pray that you can get some rest knowing he is at peace.
I am so sorry for your loss. I don’t think any amount of time will ever be enough, but I am glad you got the time that you did with him. He left this world being loved, which is the best gift you could have given him. Sending hugs .
I’m in the same boat now as your father regarding Bilateral nephrostomy tubes as the cancer had pressed on the ureter tubes not allowing a stent procedure. It is what it is. Your father now is no longer suffering and is experiencing a whole new life that is beyond anything we can comprehend. I’m not there yet but the writing is on the wall.
My dad was 68 turning 69. Yes, very similar boat. His urologist capped his tubes without letting any of us know because he wanted to see if a stent was possible. Since they didn’t let us know, and didn’t give us instructions, my dad went into septic shock and his bladder was not able to empty. We were lucky he pulled through. That doctor never addressed it and walked out of the room when my dad tried to. So continue to advocate for yourself and I wish you the very best!
I'm sorry for your loss. And I'm sorry you had so little time post diagnosis with him, but I'm glad your dad found peace. As Cantchoose2 beautifully put it, I hope you find peace soon too. Our dads would not want us to live in sorrow and regret, they would want us to go out and live our life to the fullest. I wish nothing but the best for you.
We all know you stayed strong for him till the end, now be gentle on yourself. I know you did what you could to make him feel safe and loved for the short time you both had left. Take care of yourself and your family.
