[QUOTE="RYDMOTO, post: 720991, member: 21865"] I thought I would share this experience with you all.He suffered from what we believe to be absestos related lung cancer.It started last summer and went thru treatment etc.Last week he went back to the hospital as things worsened.Thursday I took off work early to be with him and talk some.He knew time was short and told me so.I thanked him for all the good memories and the example he was to me growing up and all.I told him I loved him.He said to me he accepted what was happening and smiled.he turned for the worse on Friday so all my cousinsdid a round the clock vigil with him to see that he was comfortable.We would talk when he could.I could tell it meant a lot to him to have all his nieces and nephews around him.We all laughed and cried together with his son and daughter and each other.I came away from all this after he passed on with a new respect for dying and being with those we love to see them off.To tenderly hold his hand,rub his back,give him water was so comforting to me that I have a certain joy about all this.Our society seems to be afraid of death that we shy away from it.I know in the 1800's this was all accepted as most people died in their homes with loved ones around.What a way to be seen off to the hereafter! I will miss him at all the family parties and all.......but I know in my heart I did the right thing and faced my own fear of dying to be with him :) Here is to you Uncle Bill....you are loved :) and soon as I can....I'll tip an"old Style" beer to ya [/QUOTE]
