My husband and I nursed our son, Scott who died of cancer at 31. His last days his daddy spent rubbing lotions into his skin to ease the itching and make sure he didn't get bed sores. My husband told me to read palms to him (only the good ones) while they whispered guy things to each other. We were with him he needed that and my son went in peace feeling our love and the gentle touch of his father's hand as we gave him back to his creator.

Good dad, do what you have done, stroke her hair, whisper dad things in her earear... giving hr your strength and staying on track is the best gift.

Good bless.

May the peace that envelopes her as she is welcomed on the next leg of her souls journey, surround you and all those that love her. My thoughts and prayers lift up for each and everyone of you who have had the joy of true love.

MIR,
I don't know why I thought you were the mommy... I feel a nurturer in you, I guess.

And what a wonderful Dad you are. I know she feels safe and loved with you there. A father is a rock in times of scary things. I know you are her rock.

I'm sorry MI. I've had 4 close relatives go through this; it's hard, I know. Stay strong.
