Description


..And you'll never see the darkness.... It's been a long and heartbreaking day. We got a call this morning from one of our nieces.. Jo's brother is in his final days. His kidneys are essentially non-functional. He will not be going home. By his choice, he will go to hospice in the next day or two. He will not be doing any more dialysis treatments. We saw him today along with our two nieces and their families. He is awake and aware, mostly, and despite his pain was talking and even laughing softly and happy to see his granddaughters and grandsons. At one point Jo leaned over and kissed his forehead, and I heard him say, "I love you." It was all I could do to not break down. We've seen too many of these episodes - it never gets any easier. I'll be pretty much out of action for a few days, and just wanted to let you all know. I will be back, but it might be a couple weeks at least. The photo is one I took several years ago, probably at Lake Of The Ozarks or possibly in Arkansas somewhere. The words are my own. Thanks for stopping by, and for all your wonderful support. Stay safe, stay sane, and enjoy your time with those you love. Rod's Lair Official Girls From T.N.A. Website Rod's Blog Facebook Twitter Girls From T.N.A.

It saddens me to learn certain news and I can understand the pain you feel. Years ago, I also experienced a similar period with my mother and two years later with my father, may they rest in peace. RodS, try to stay calm and free your mind from this pain. See you soon πŸ˜”πŸ™‹β€β™‚οΈSorry for my English

oh I'm really sorry, Rod. It's so heartbreaking. I wish your brother-in-law all the peace in the world (and it sounds like he is feeling some peace now). And to all of you in his family, much peace and strength. Your poem is beautiful, and your photograph is also beautiful, a coppery gold sunrise/sunset. I wish you and Jo great peace and strength, and I hope that the love you've shared with your brother-in-law will be with you forever. And may he feel great love and peace as well. I'll comment on your previous piece too, which you can see whenever you return, but take the time you need, it's been a long journey for you both, and much blessing to you, Jo, Jo's brother and all his loved ones. My deepest blessings are with all of you.

I wish you lot's of strength, comfort and peace. Yes, it never get's any easier to say good bye!! I went through this several times now (with Family members, Friends and my Cats (yes I know, that this is redundant with "Family members", but there are still lot's of people, who still don't understand this simple equation/logic. So I wanted to put this straight) and it was hard and heartbreaking every time.... I wish I was in the position to say:"I keep you in my prayers", but some years ago I somehow lost my faith and the faith that my prayers can change anything to the good at all. So I send you and your brother in law my good wishes and a lot of good thoughts and strength (so understand this as a kind of non christian blessing).

Take all the time you need. We won't run away and we're with you and your Family in our thoughts Big Hug

It's good to know his last hours were as fulfilling for him, as much as possible at least.

Very beautiful verse on this fine photo! Many prayers for one of the lucky ones being allowed to leave this hell hole of a planet we have turned it into. I pray he makes a smooth transition and finds many loved ones on the other side to greet him and bring much joy to his soul! But, as you say, it never gets easier for we poor souls that are left behind.
