It has been a long time since I last posted on this forum.
My father passed away on January 26th, 2025. I made my first post when I was approximately 19 years old, very scared for my father’s future. I was always afraid that my father would not be able to attend my sister and I’s wedding.
I am now 24 years old, and my sister is 28. My father was able to be present for both my sister and I’s wedding before his passing, and we are so grateful that we had enough time with him to share these memories 💕
Keep being strong to all the warriors out there still battling this disease and the other complications that come from it. Please keep my father in your prayers.

I am sorry to hear of the loss of your father. It was a blessing for him to attend your family weddings, and you now have precious memories to cherish forever. May they bring you peace, happiness and healing.
My family's condolences to yours. So nice to hear he made both weddings. I'm sure he was very proud! And I hope you can progress past this terrible time in your life and move forward with your father in your heart! Thanks for taking care of Dad!!
so sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. I hope you take to time to grieve and have a good support system to help you through this. It’s a hard for someone so young to lose a father and I know you will carry his love in your heart
based on Capricornsurfer's comment, I have a little bit of unsolicited advice for chocolate lover's daughter:
You were a devoted daughter to your father and he was lucky to have you. I also lost my father when I was in my mid-twenties. I suggest that you sit down now and write things that he told you, pieces of advice or family stories so that you will be able to remember them better years from now. You can be at peace knowing you tried to help him and I am sure he appreciated that. May he rest in peace. Your care for him can be an inspiration to others. Please accept my deepest sympathy.
Your dear Dad was blessed to have you and your Sister as his offspring. I wish to compliment you and your Sister by using the three words used by my Dad when he was happy with my accomplishments. "You Did Good".
You will always remember your Father but time will eventually erode the sharpness of your memory. It did for me, since my Dad passed away in 1955. Nowadays we have lots of media that will help you keep his memory much sharper in your mind forever. Of course keep his memory alive in your heart.
So sorry for the loss of your Dad. Sounds like we’re able to make some great memories before he left this world. Sending hugs and prayers to you and your family.
My deepest condolence...I am still batling with this Monster in my body. My journey been 4 yrs as of this month. GS 4 + 5 which is very aggresive but I am lucky for last 3yrs bone scan, MRI, USG, were all clean from metastasis to bones. I will undertake annual bone scan this coming May, hope the result still good. Jesus bless us...
I feel sorry for the passing of your dear father. From his bio you listed, his PSA were all good 0.05....in 2020. Looked like his disease was controlled. My Gleason score is also 10 and my lymphonodes are metatasized too. I am also on hormone shot once a month now. My prostate was removed exactly 2 years ago this month but no radiation therapy ( a mistake? I do not know) He seemed to have lived another 13 years since his RP. I wish I could be like him but of course, wish there would be no pain. God take care of you. I am sure your dad was proud to have ypu as his daughter.
My sincere condolences to you and your family. What amazing daughters your father had. Thank you for advocating and researching for him. It is humbling. Graham
bless you for taking time to share this sad news. And congratulations to you ALL for fighting this fight together for such a long time and with such great outcomes (him being at your weddings, for instance ☺️)
My prayers for you and your family to find peace and comfort at this difficult time.
May the great memories fill the sorrow and loss in the months and years to come. All my best to you and your family as you navigate this time. RIP Dad 🙏🏻🩵
Love and Light to you sister, you have done well, and I'm sure your Dad recognized that, he was there for you, to see his legacy advance in a most positive way. Be not dismayed for we ALL have a pros that we sometime don't understand and that's ok. We question and are confused by Death because we fear what we do not Know, that's ok too for at some point we realize that we can only control what WE do, act and react upon. Be strong and knowing in the fact that your dad's every lives on in you because Every is infinite and has no end or beginning. I let that marinade fit a bit, hit me back, I have more, much more info friend💪
I am so sorry to hear of his passing. I too am hanging on to try and stay here for my younger son’s wedding later this year. I told my oncologist last week that I was going to be here and she said she liked my attitude. She did not say whether she thought I would be here or not, but you are an inspiration to each and everyone of us, and thank you for the way that you cared for your father.
my deepest warmth that he was present at at his junction at least the very important ones but you too as a son know he was always proud of you and sisters ......your always proud and giving dad .
Thank you for reaching out. Be blessed to know he has no pain or suffering and has a new spiritual body. We are made in Gods Image, “Spirit” The body dies and that spirit is rejoined with God in a heavenly place. It’s hard for mortal man to understand this process. But a spirit filled individual understands it completely.
You also were made in the image of God, And you will rejoice with him also at the end of your life.
Thank you for sharing the touching post. We all fight this disease together. I hope to attend my two daughters' weddings and have those memories with them. Our thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
Condolences to you and your family. PCa took my father-in-law over 20 years ago, leaving a big hole in the family. Now it’s my challenge. Keep the good and great memories. They will sustain you until you meet again.
I am deeply sorry for your loss. It's heartening to know that your father was able to be present at both of your weddings, creating beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.
Your strength and resilience during this difficult time is a reminder for all of us to cherish the moments we have with our loved ones. May you find comfort in the love and support of those around you, and may your father's memory bring you peace.
Sending you a big hug. I'm sorry for your loss 💔I remember your first post here and I could relate a lot. So glad you and your sister could have him at your weddings.
Your dad was blessed to have your care, a reflection of the devotion he showed to you. You did what you could, and it is enough. May you find God's comfort in the days ahead.
Your Father blazes the trail that we all must follow. I believe that he will be there for you and your sister. I have no choice but to believe that. He will be there with y'all in spirit. Godspeed!
