Description

here is a picture of my Mom & Dad's car just after the wreck. Dad was siting in the passenger seat when the car got hit by the SUV. I cannot say anymore as the accident is still under investigation and I do not have all the details. I will say this though: I thank all of you from the bottom of my heart and soul for the kind thoughts and words & dedication/ tributes you have given me. It helps me deal with the event in a positive way, that I know that I am not alone. when going around to various stores and places I have been asked how am I doing, rather than lying, I misquote Pink Floyd and tell them I'm Uncomfortably numb and then tell them what happened. I'm impressed by all the people who knew my dad or was affected by his actions (in a positive way) I just hope that I can follow in my Dad's footsteps. I know there is no way I could even begin to fill his shoes but I try to follow the path that he was on. for all of you - I thank you again for all your thoughts and prayers, they mean so much to me right now and I will share your comments with my Step-mom when the time is right. again, thank you

I don't think your Pink Floyd words are miss quoted, that's how I deal with death.

It's great hear about all those other people and how your Father had a connection with them in some way, stay positive and sure enough something really cool will happen to you.

~Cheers~

What a perfect way to answer when people ask how you are doing..."Uncomfortably numb" It describes so well that feeling of functioning with the feeling of not being totally connected to reality. I think perhaps we get that when there is too much to process all at once. Perhaps it is the brain's way of surviving without retreating into insanity. It gives you the ability to do what you need to do without breaking down and being unable to function. It allows you to process things at a slower pace. I am glad that you are feeling the positivity of the support we are sending your way. In the end nothing can change what happened. It is how we choose to deal with it that makes a difference. Choosing the positives, the good memories, the wonderful example your dad was to you.... those are the things that help you honor your father and hold him within yourself so that he still lives within your heart. Sending you another heartfelt hug.

Dear Mike, this really looks horrible! I somehow know how it feels to stand in front of a big void suddenly left by someone who passed away unexpectedly. It's like walking in a bad dream from which you wish to wake up and find your self just laying in bed knowing it was just a nightmare. By and by you realize that you won't just wake up! That's when I wish I could turn back time and make it unhappen. But even this does not help. Lucky, if you where in a clean and peaceful relation with the one who passed away! I wasn't fully when my dad died and to make another link to music (as you did in your comment) for me the "living years" of Mike and the Mechanics fits more the situation. So I try to stay in good relation to everybody (which is not always easy), because you never know if this time was the last time you saw a certain person again in this life... Be blessed, you and your Family

Mike I believe you are more like your dad than you know. As I have gotten to know you in the last few years, I see that you are a man with a caring heart. You have always taken time to reach out to not just me, but all of the many friends on Rendo. And yes, the numb is your minds way of dealing with the unimaginable. The hurt slips thru, but the pain is too great. So you just shove it back. Later you will face it. For now I am so glad you have family and friends there to help with the details of getting thru. I believe you will continue to honor your father with your life. As hard as this is, some how we all get thru it. I look at that picture and see the many accidents that I have worked over the years. I so wish people would understand that cars are not a game. Hugs and prayers to you and your family.

I am sure Mike that your dad was very proud of you. Such a terrible thing to happen & so suddenly. With an illness you usually have time to tell loved ones how much you loved them. I hope that your step mum is getting better day by day from her injuries. Love to you all. xxxx
