So sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family.
Words can not put aside the pain you feel. But do know that good thoughts and prayers are being sent your way. God speed.
FairyChatMom,
I will be thinking about you and hope everything goes smoothly for you in the time ahead. A very close friend of mine lost her father this summer to a heart attack at a relatively young age (early 70s), and I know a little what you’re going through.
Love to you and the Sometimes Perfect Child[super]TM[/super].
FairyChatMom, please know my thoughts and best wishes are with you and your family through this very troubling time. Please let your mother know others are sending their prayers as well. My mom appreciated it when my Dad died a few weeks ago and you all were sending similar wishes and condolences.
Be strong and know we are here for you to rant and vent to.

FairyChatMom, my thoughts and prayers are there for you and your family - and I know that doesn’t always seem to mean a lot when you’re hurting and angry.
We’ve not interacted much on the boards - but in a lot of ways you seem to remind me a lot of my mother, the one who everyone turned to - the “strong” one. Find some time for yourself and let yourself cry if you need to. And give FairyChatDad and ThePerfectChild big hugs whenever you need to.
FairyChatMom, I’m sorry your father died. I understand the anger and confusion (my Dad died when he was 60), being scared at the thought that Dad wasn’t around anymore. You and your family are in my thoughts.
FCM - I’m sorry for your loss - If it’s okaw with you, I’ll pray for the repose of his soul. My his soul, and the soul of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
My dad died three and a half years ago of lung cancer. My mother had been sick most of my life, I never expected her to outlive my dad. And she was the smoker, not him. They’d been married for 47 years.
I miss my dad. It’s not the same without him.

I am so sorry to hear of your sudden loss … take care of yourself as well as your family… we’ll be thinking of you over the next few weeks.
Hope you don’t mind I made an announcement at the Unaboard…
My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours, FCM.
i am so very sorry. my thoughts and prayers will be with y’all.
I’m so very sorry, hon. I’ll be thinking of you.
My husband is here. We went out this afternoon to get some clothes for the kid and me. We’ve had dinner, and we’ve been fielding phone calls with offers of help. The dogs go to the kennel tomorrow afternoon. While the kid is in school, Steve and I will shop for some clothes for him. We’ll pack up tomorrow and leave in the dark of Wednesday morning.
It looks like the viewings will be Saturday and Sunday, with the funeral Monday morning. I feel like I’m in the calm before the storm - I think I’m cried out for now.
I can’t thank you all enough for your kind thoughts and prayers. I feel so fortunate to be part of such a community. I send out special thanks to those who took a few moments to send an e-mail. Your words of comfort mean so much to me. I am truly blessed.
Best wishes to you and your family.
My condolences, FairyChatMom and family.
My condolences, FCM and FCFamily.
I can only offer my condolences, FCM. May you find the strength to deal with your loss, and have many, lasting memories of your father.
My thoughts go out to you and your family at this time.
FCM and family - my thoughts and prayers go out to you all. Be strong. There are lots of people here who care about you. Remember we will still all here for you next week, and whenever, after the funeral, after things are “back to normal.” Even tho’ things will never be the same.
My condolences to you, FCM and your family: hang in there, and cherish the memories.
My condolences, FairyChatMom
