TheJenn88 Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 =( My grandma died. She was a lovely person. I don't know what to do for my mum. I feel like a hug just isn't good enough. I wish I could do more. I hatehatehate cancer. That's all I really have to say... Quote
RoyalOrleans Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Let me be the first to say, how sorry I am to hear of your loss. My thoughts are with you Jenn. Peace. Quote To be the Man, you've got to beat the Man. - Ric Flair Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science.
ToriAllen Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 I hatehatehate cancer. Ditto that. Quote Smart men learn from their own mistakes; Wise men learn from others. I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed man.
Lethalfind Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Jenn, I'm so sorry. I have thought alot about this and I don't know if there is anything someone can do for another who is in pain. I remember when my Dad died, we were at the funeral home. The funeral director asked me if there was anything he could do to help me. I thanked him but thought only if you can bring him back to life. My Dad had told me one time when we ran into this man in public that he thought he was mentally measuring him for his casket. What an odd thing to remember at such a time... Again, I am so sorry. Loosing the older members of our family is very disorienting because we think of them as the wiser leaders. When they start going it makes us feel so much closer to the real world. At least it has for me... Quote I am a pathetic piece of shit leeching single mom.
builder Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Jenn, we spoke about this in chat. Rest assured that the pain is gone. With the passing, comes the peace. No more pain. No more suffering soundlessly. Just peace. . . . . Quote Persevere, it pisses people off.

ALLAH IS GREAT Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Jenn,sweety,I know how it is to feel useless when a parent is in pain.I lost my grandad in 2001.I didn't know what to do to ease my mum's grief. But time has prooved to be a healer,though not completely. May God ease your pain and sorrow. 1 Quote 'They intend to put out the Light of Allah with their mouths.But Allah will bring His Light to perfection even though the disbelievers hate it' ''Oh Allah!Make the best of my deeds my last deeds, and make the best of my life my last moments, and make the best day of my life the Day I meet You!''
TheJenn88 Posted October 10, 2005 Author Posted October 10, 2005 Aw, you guys are so lovely. I'm actually crying. Thank you KM, AIG, and everyone else! big hug Quote
tizz Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 Jenn I am SOOOOOOOO sorry for your loss. I know you are aware I am going through a similar situation myself. It is hard as hell but I have found that pictures tel a thousand words and provide as many happy memories (and quite a few laughs and even a few head scratches) You are in my thoughts Quote "An intelligence that is not humane is the most dangerous thing in the world" Ashley Montague "No one should have to walk alone" Phuong Du "An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind" Ghandi "If I were asked to define an American in a single phrase, I would say 'An American is a person who has the right to be different' and I think that right is growing" William Manchester
RegisteredAndEducated Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 Jenn, we talked some in the chat yesterday, I hope you're feeling better and I hope that your mom is feeling better now. You know that you have a place to come and talk to people when you need to!! Tizz (sorry to put this in your thread Jenn), I also hope that you are ok and that all is going well with your family. Both of you will be in our thoughts and prayers. Quote Intelligent people think... how ignorance must be bliss.... idiots have it so easy, it's not fair... to have to think... WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO BE AMONG THOSE FORTUNATE MASSES..... Hey, "Non-believers" I've just got one thing to say to ya... If you're right, then what difference does it make, it wont matter when we're dead anyway... But if I'm right... Well, hey... Ya better be right...
TheJenn88 Posted October 12, 2005 Author Posted October 12, 2005 Blegh. Well, the funeral was today. My uncle came hungover and stoned. It was disgusting. Way to show the love for your dead mum, eh? Quote
tizz Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 Jenn there is ALWAYS one, don't let it bother you. I hope the service was nice. I was thinking of you al day Quote "An intelligence that is not humane is the most dangerous thing in the world" Ashley Montague "No one should have to walk alone" Phuong Du "An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind" Ghandi "If I were asked to define an American in a single phrase, I would say 'An American is a person who has the right to be different' and I think that right is growing" William Manchester
