My Pop Died Last Night

New Here? You may want to Subscribe to my RSS feed for daily updates. Or if you prefer, Subscribe by Email Thanks for visiting!

These past couple of months have been really bad. As most of you know Mom died on December 13. Pop followed last night, exactly 13 weeks to the day.

I have no idea when I will be able to post anything of any use.

I will have the Carnival on Friday, the participants do most of the work anyway, and I thank them for that.

Liz, I will still do the spreadsheet for SOBCon, I think busy work will be good for me.

Hopefully, I should be back either at the end of this week or the beginning of next.

Joe

      Thanks, he was going down hill since Mom died, I think he just lost the will to live.

    6. So often, spouses follow each other quickly. Not sure if that’s any consolation, though.

      I don’t want to bother you now, but feel free to give me a call if there’s anything I can do.

      For now, a cyberhug

    10. I’m so sorry to hear it Joe - I’ll be happy to post something for ya on Tuesday.

    11. Hi Joe. I was just stopping by on my way to submit an entry for the upcoming carnival. My condolences go out to you. My wife’s dad passed last fall, and I had a chance to post some articles on the grieving process and the balance between the need to allow time for the grief - and the healing - and the need to return to regular life. Perhaps there might be something helpful there for you.

      I’ll go ahead and submit the entry to the carnival and hopefully it will make your life easier.

    12. Joe, even though I’m overwhelmed (but happy and eager) about guest writing, I do understand what it means to have friends to help right now. You’re a special guy, Joe. As I said before, whatever I can do to help.

      P.S. If you like tomorrow’s post, I wrote it. If not, it was probably someone else :)

    18. Hey Gleb,
      As more than one person told me the past couple of days, it’s hard to lose your parents at ANY age.
      So close isn’t too good either.
      Thanks for your kind words (sounds redundant, but heartfelt).

    19. Hey GP,
      Something I found out today… Virtual friends can very easily become Real 3-D friends when you need them, even without ever meeting them in person. ;-)
      Thanks for your help and support throughout this whole thing.

    22. Hi Joe,

      Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I’m sorry to hear about your Pop - and your Mom. It has been difficult for you lately.

      Remember the good times and take care of yourself!

    23. Joe,

      My condolences on your loss mate. It’s hard to lose a parent, when you’re young you think that they will always be there. As we grow we try and hold on to that thought for the alternative is too painful to think about.

      Take care and take your time.

      Input by Ripley | March 22, 2007 @ 6:25 am

    24. Hey Robert,Lyman,Sandy and Ripley,
      Thanks to you all for your kindness and prayers. My family can’t believe how many Good Friends I have made online.
      We ALL say Thanks.
