RIP


Well it finally happened. My Brother In Law passed away this afternoon at 3:30pm. It is a very sad loss for many reasons. He was a very significant part of our home and especially my sons life. Thank you BIL for all the wonderful memories and spending your time taking care of us. You are gone from our presence but not our hearts.

Thank you hon. The change in our house is not yet close to being settled. My BIL was a very significant part of our home life. The man took care of my son since he was born. Picked him up from school every day. Made family dinner twice a week for us. The list can continue on and on. His loss is great. But I'm grateful his passing was quick and peaceful. It hurts for those of us left behind but I know he is in a much better place. Adjusting to the lifestyle change is strange but we will survive. We are all holding strong to one another. I'm trying to be more compassionate and understanding. Especially to my son but I also cant' let him use this as an excuse to act out or not take responsibility for his actions. Thank you for the thoughts and prayers.

    So sorry for the loss of life, it leaves such a void in the hearts of children. They'll need extra hugs.
Little man is getting lots of hugs and attention. He's doing well. I'm really surprised. He's being bigger and tougher than I think he really needs to be.

    I'm so very sorry for your loss. Hope you managed to have a good Easter...maybe helped cheer the little guy up for a little while. Be gentle on yourselves...it takes time. Hugs to all of you.
We did manage to get through the weekend OK. Little man stayed with a friend until Sunday so we didn't even tell him till then. he had a blast at his friends house. He's taking it hard but doing well. He just need a little bit of extra loving and we are giving it to him. The tears aren't over but we will survive together.

Thank you. Thank you too for making me laugh! I think laughter can do a great deal of good for the healing process. The loss of a loved one will always be a loss but for me, death is a time for rejoicing life and all that person offered. Each one of us in our family are dealing with this loss in their own way. We all have tears but today I choose to remember times of joy over the sorrow of loss. Your making me laugh only adds to that reinforcement.

It is never easy when someone you love passes..but they will always remain in your hearts and memories...

Give extra hugs and love to your son, as it will be difficult for him as know your BIL was an important part of his life..

Captivate my mind...and who knows what will follow. Discover more of my ramblings at [blog geysergirl]

My heart goes out to you all, but he is in a better place where there will be no more pain.
Hope your little man is ok.

I am just grateful that he didn't just hang on and on. He is in a better place. Just knowing how different things will be from now on.
