| That was beautiful! It was also really hard for me to watch, because I decided five years ago to move far far far away from my parents and marry a guy they can't understand half of the time And I have a lot of guilt over that, and over and not staying in touch with them like I should! Thanks for the reminder

My grandma right now is suffering from her second round with Breast Cancer at eightie and now has shingles so I know her time is coming and it just really touched me. I'm literally balling right now. Thanks for posting such a wonderful message. I'm going to call her now.

| I am crying like a baby now. I hope no one comes in the office for awhile. That was beautiful. My father passed away July 30, 2003 at age 60. He had cancer. His last wish was not to be put in a nursing home. The doctors only gave him 3 months to live. So we kept him at home. My mother, sister and I took care of him. The cancer went to his brain. Sometimes it was like taking care of a child. This message hit right at home. Thanks for sharing. |

| I just got off the phone with my grandma who has breast cancer and shingles(at the moment) and has had a heart attack, just recently had a mini heart attack(her second heart attack although this one wasn't as bad) , stroke and breast cancer yet agian when she was younger. I told her I loved her and she started crying. I feel so bad when she crys cause I just want to be next to her holding her hand tellling her it's alright and that I'll always be there for her, but its so hard when you live almost a thousand miles away(literally, she lives in Las Vegas, NV). All I could do is sit there and tell her "no matter what happens grandma I'll always be your little girl. Please don't cry. I miss you." It's so hard to hear the ones you love cry and know there's nothing you can do but talk to them. My grandma is my life. she is one of the last three blood relatives I keep in contact with and I can't loose her. I know her time is coming but how do I deal with it? I've lost my daddy, my moms been dead to me for fourteen years(she's alive I just choose not to talk to her; she was abusive), and my grandpa. and now Gods taking away her. How do I deal with this? Help.

| That is so touching. I just went thru that with my step-mom. Her first husband died of cancer when she was in her 40's. She lost her 2nd husband, (who was my husband's - whom I lost to a heart attack this past xmas - dad) to heart attach and stroke in '92. She then married my dad, and lost him to a stroke 2 years ago, at xmas-time. (both of our mom's had passed away previously). She had a stroke the day after the 2nd anniversary of his death and from that time on had totally given up. She was ready to go. She had lost all of her brothers and sisters but one. It was horrible watching her and taking care of her as she gave up everything that was important to her. In the end, she quit taking her meds and stopped eating. It was her wish to die with dignity, so all we could do was be with her and make her as comfortable as possible. That clip really hit home. Yes, my eyes are leaking all over the place.

| Thank you so much for the "wake up" call. I lost my father in '73, my father-in-law '05, my mother-in-law is in a nursing home now and I am just not as close to my 83 year old mother as I should be. I will be making some changes thanks to you!!
