Emo's tio David lost his fight with cancer(s) early this morning around 3am.

I wish I could say it was peacefull but apparently there was some kind of fight going on with his aunt and the hospice nurse over how much morphine was appropriate for a man whose liver and kidneys had shut down. :rolleyes
The nurse apologized about 15 mins after David took his last breath and my aunt slapped her.
*sigh*I really wish it had gone a bit nicer, but turhtfully there have been problems with the hospice people since the begining.


Thankfully he is no longer in any pain. Thankfully all that is over with. We have been expecting this but it is still hard. Emo was especially close with his uncle. even when you are *waiting* for the inevitable - it still hurts, and hits you hard.
The services will be in Houston - either saturday or monday, that hasn't been decided yet.

Please keep us in your thoughts. Thanks folks.

I am so sorry for your loss. My blessings of peace are with you, your husband and the entire family.

The loss of a loved one is never easy, even when it is "expected", as it was in David's case. I hope all of your wonderful memories of him can help comfort your during this difficult time.

Peace.

Sorry to hear that, Obi. My mom is going through her second round of radiation and chemo as we speak. I also had LOTS of problems with the nurses and doctors at the first hospital we took her too. Luckily, we had her transferred to a better one.

My condolences to you, Emo, and the rest of your family. :(

The Balm Of God's Love


When we lose someone we love
The loss seems too great to bear
God sends us friends to comfort us
To show that He deeply cares

But in the dark hours of the night
When there’s nobody else around
When we feel the saddest and loneliest
It’s there God’s love can be found

It’s like a soothing, healing balm
To soothe our broken hearts
The healing oil poured over us
That flows into every part

We can rest secure in God’s love
And know He’s by our side
He holds us when we feel as though
A part of us has died

We can know that God will listen
When we just want to talk
And when we feel we need to cry
We can share it with the Lord

For He is always waiting there
Ready with arms open wide
As we pour out the hurt within
He pours His love inside

Our Father above loves us so much
And will never leave us alone
He will not forsake us in our need
To face this on our own

He comforts us and strengthens us
And rubs us with His balm
And as the dawn breaks through the night
We’ll awake in His loving arms.
