I agree wholeheartedly that what Hilary is doing on her blog is just wonderful, and touched me to the core precisely because I lost a parent recently and can feel what she is going through. It's nice to know that you too understand, and that there is a community 'out here' who have been through this loss and can help others going through the same, because we know that we received help when we were going through this and so all of us want to pay it forward. Sorry to hear about your father's drowning. It's sad when there is no time to say goodbye. Even though I had that luxury, there are still so many things I wish I could tell him, and what reassures me is that when I think these thoughts, somewhere somehow he knows. And it's the same for me, tears still fall down my face when I think about him, though sometimes his memory brings smiles and laughter instead. So it's all good. The relationships still exist, on our parts at least. I like your site very much! I hope we'll be in touch. Hello Dan and Deanna,

Welcome, and thank you for such a wonderful first comment!

Sorry to hear about your father’s drowning. It’s sad when there is no time to say goodbye. Even though I had that luxury, there are still so many things I wish I could tell him, and what reassures me is that when I think these thoughts, somewhere somehow he knows. And it’s the same for me, tears still fall down my face when I think about him, though sometimes his memory brings smiles and laughter instead. So it’s all good. The relationships still exist, on our parts at least.

I like your site very much! I hope we’ll be in touch.

It is wonderful what she is doing on her blog. Thank you for the support that you are giving to her. She is in need of that. I too have lost a parent. I did not have the time like this to say good-by. My father drowned will fishing in Yellow Stone Park. He was missing for two weeks before they found his body down river in a different state. (they were looking for someone else at the time they spotted his body.) That was many years ago, I was 12 at the time. I would have liked the time to say good-by but that was not to be. It has been over 30 years but as writing this I have tears coming done my face, so it is always with us is it not. My dear husband lost his mother and a brother when he was around 11. Many of us are out here, we give support to those that are going through it now. because we have been there before them. We will come back often now that we know about your blog. Thank you again for the beautiful words that you have given to our blogging friend, Hilary. Have a good day. We are new to your site, Daphne, but we are regulars to Hilary’s blog.
