Hello :-)

I have just been looking at your previous posts and can see it has been a while since you last posted and I have not been lucky enough to get to know you as I see you have a sense of humour in some of your previous posts

But I am so sorry to read this post and lost for words to be honest

I am not sure what has happened and I hope a miracle happens whatever is going of

Sending my very best wishes :-) x

Hi Sanpedro

I am truly very sorry to hear this, have they totally run out of options for you? So many new meds around these days, though of course not suitable for everyone & Indeed don't work for everyone.

Sending you my very best wishes, you & your family are in my thoughts xx

I'm really am so sorry, I know you have your faith and I know that will sustain you & your family until you meet again.

It's really lovely that you've chosen to stay home with your family where you will be surrounded by love.

I am humbled by your acceptance & so glad you're at peace with it.

I’m sorry I didn’t get a chance to get to know you as I am a ‘newish’ member.

I just wanted to let you know that I’ll be keeping you in my thoughts and like BeKind has said, I hope there is a miracle coming your way.

All my best to you & your family during this difficult time.

l am so sorry of your diagnosis. I didn’t know what to say at first and then l thought none of us know when we will leave this place to go home. It could be sooner for us who knows. The thing is we all have to go and if you do go, you will get there first and we will follow. We are all getting on a bit on here so we have to accept this is part of life. I admire your courage and great attitude. I hope your faith and family will be a great comfort to you. I hope you have some happy days yet. God bless, love and prayers.

Hi SanpredroI'm very sorry to hear your news & feel that you are very brave to share this news with us all.

Lezzerz email above refers to you having faith, so I 🙏 that your God will provide you and your family & friends with peace & strenth & courage during these last few months as they will be difficult for you all.

I hope that you get to share old happy memories & laughter & a chance to say all you that you want to, including that you love them & wish them well & to say goodbye too, while letting them know that you believe you are going to a better place & that you will meet again in the future.

It's so lovely to hear that your faith is strong enough for you not to be scared.

That's such a wonderful gift that you are trying to give & leave to your friends & family - because with that strong sense of your faith, when the time comes it will help them through their grief as they can be very comforted by it.

I 🙏 that your God will continue to be by your side 24/7 in this final journey, & that he will have your room in his house ready to welcome you at the appropriate time, and have the heavenly / celestial celebrations prepared also.

In the meantime Please do ensure that you have GP support & visiting nursing support if you need it, as they should put measures in place to keep you as comfortable and pain free as possible.

All my love

I am so sorry to read your news.I can only endorse Lezzer's comments.

Talking about our own and another's death is not easy.

Maybe it's something we should do more often.

Thank you for having the courage to raise the issue with such dignified, calm and peaceful acceptance.

I am glad to hear you will be at home, surrounded by those whom you love and who love you.

I was sat with my eldest brother in September, as we said our final goodbyes to my elder brother.

He was at home as he had wanted. He left us surrounded by love.

His family were fully supported by the local hospice team. I hope this will be available for you.

Adieu.

I admire your courage and honesty in talking about the inevitable. We've all got to go sometime, maybe having such a clear check-out date helps get our thoughts in order?

Good luck!

I have lost my dad aged 54, his brother aged 54, their other brother aged 26 and my own brother aged 27 all to the same diseases. I have 2 young children, a son aged 8 and a daughter 4. I can only wish you the best. Having looked at some of your posts years ago, a joke teller and a fisher with your sons. I have read so many inspirational stories on this forum. There are trouble maker then a few like you, positive upbeat and inspiring. Please take care of yourself while you can and all the best!!😀

Hi San Pedro, so sorry to read your post. The medical profession seems to be quite harsh at times. I know of two other people with such news. Good luck to you and I hope that you prove them wrong. You seem to have a positive frame of mind which can help immensely.

Good morning, I am so sorry to hear your news and I hope that you have support from your family.Did you make a 'bucket list' and did you complete it? If you did, I hope you enjoyed everything. My wife and I,81 & 79 enjoy cruise holidays, so we use that as our 'bucket' and try to go somewhere new each year.

So sorry to hear your news, Sanpedro. It sounds as if you have recently been given this news, in which case it must have been a shock. Thank goodness you are not afraid and have your family around you.🤗🤗

So sorry to read this, Sanpedro. Make sure you get all the help available. If there is a local hospice, they might have a community team who will work alongside your regular GP and community nurses. There's plenty of help out there for you and your family. Don't feel you're putting pressure on anyone by asking.

Best wishes, Alison x

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. John will be missed. He had a really positive and humorous outlook and came across as so brave. When he told us end of life care was being discussed he talked about how important support from his lovely family was and making memories and laughing together! So inspirational and his approach really moved and resonated with me. You are all in my thoughts ♥️
