Hello My Freinds... My Daughter Has Less than 1 Year to Live

I'll be truthful. I never know what to say at times like this, other than my condolences.

Be strong for the little ones. You'll see your daughter in them everyday.

I have been following this thread for the last week, i feel awkward replying as this is such a personal matter. Putting that aside to say I'm sorry for such a huge loss. God bless you and your family.

So very sorry to hear of your Daughters passing.
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

She is at peace and in your heart.

I just feel completely inadequate with words. I think your beautiful daughter will rest easy knowing you will be there for her children. What a wonderful comfort for her for you to be there at her time.

Thinking of you at this time, my heart is saddened by
your loss.
Stay safe.

This is dreadful news, no parent should ever have to live through this. Be strong and use your support network, your loved ones, groups and forums, whatever you need. Nothing anyone says may mean anything unless they have lived through it themselves, but words or just somebody to listen, can bring comfort in times of grief. I would never want to feel what you are feeling and for so long knowing your daughter was going to go within a relatively short space of time, I certainly with the highest of hopes wish you to continue that strength in getting through this and continuing on with your life.

So sorry to hear this.

I don't have any children and could never know what you are going through right now, but reading your post brought tears to my eyes. Such a beautiful young woman taken away so so soon.

My condolences OpionatedB. My prayers are with you and your whole family. Stay strong and know that she's going to a better place.

ETA: Wow, I just realized that she is even younger than me. That's way too soon. My heart goes out to you.

I am deeply sorry for what you and your family must be going through! I have lost loved ones to
cancer and know all to well that it's an evil and cruel disease! My sister died of it about 10 years ago!
She had fought tooth and nail to live but the cancer was just too aggressive! I don't know if it was
the disease or the treatments that finally took their toll on her health but by the time she died she
was just a shell of her former self! That I have to say was the hardest part in losing her and the way
she fought still chokes me up after all this time! I miss her dearly!
I realize there are no words that I can say to ease your pain and the fact that she is your daughter only
makes it that much more difficult! I don't know why God allows these terrible things to happen but I do
know that he does exist and no matter what happens to your daughter we have to know that someday
we will be reunited with them! I would like to advise you to maybe make some videos of her!
Some videos of her giving advice of her children and congratulating them for getting into that trade school
or college! Wishing them a happy life when they finally get married! Wishing them well when they
have some runts of their very own! It will be something that will ease her life in the end and their lives
in the future!
I will say a prayer for your daughter! As I will pray to ease the suffering of all who are! May God have mercy
on all of us and may our pain be one day redeemed in unity with a love to surpass all time! God Bless you
your daughter and the rest of your family!

I pray that you find peace in everyday things, I pray that her memory will always bring joy and not sadness. I pray that your pain will soften up with her presence in her babies, I pray that her children will stay safe and grow up happy.
I am sorry you are going through this. It is more than I could handle in a million lifetimes. If you need a friend, please pm me.

OB, I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. You and your family are in my prayers. You are such a beautiful person and I am hurting for you. Your welcoming personality during the ATS regent election threads made me, someone who is more comfortable reading but not posting, feel able to post more and get to know more of my fellow ATS'ers. I hate seeing your pain and know that what you are sharing here must only be a fraction of what you are feeling.

I want to thank you so much for sharing your daughter with us and allowing us to get to know her with this thread. She sounds like a beautiful soul and it was an honor that you shared her with us.

Take care,
Cindi

You know, you should always be comfortable posting. You are so much more intelligent than I am. Whenever you speak I know its worth listening to. Most the time I just ramble. But then, not everything we say has to be profound... so long as we get to know one another and call each other friend.

To me, the internet is about what America once was. Its a melting pot where we can learn from one another and celebrate each others differences as well as likenesses. We can expand our knowledge base through one anothers knowledge, learning from one another, and in the process become friends so we can also lean on one another.

Everyone has something great to offer, you most especially I believe.

Thank you so much for your kindness, and your words of condolence.

She is so beautiful isnt she? Last night I was remembering a good time with her, the kitchen was always my "happy place" as I love to cook so much. So much time was spent in the kitchen with her. Whenever it was only her and I at home and we would be in the kitchen she would turn on some music and we would dance... Dancing at home with her was some of the most fun I ever had....

Yes, it hurts so bad.. worse than I say... but I have those times.. 23 years of those times. They were a gift.

Really really sorry to hear your news OP. I honestly cannot even begin to imagine how you feel about this or are coming to terms with it.

I am not religious so cannot offer any prayers on your behalf but you are most certainly in my thoughts. I truly hope something amazing happens but realise you cannot base your hopes on that.

Really, just all the best.

My condolences on your terrible loss, I am no stranger these type of losses as I observed two people very close to me go into the ground in one day. I was inconsolable at the time, but now these verses from the bible at least help me now.

Although they say the loss of a child is the worse of any death, so no matter what it is going to be very difficult.


Death Is Like a Deep Sleep

“Give light to my eyes, so that I may not fall asleep in death.”—Psalm 13:3.

“‘Lazarus our friend has fallen asleep, but I am traveling there to awaken him.’ The disciples then said to him: ‘Lord, if he is sleeping, he will get well.’ Jesus, however, had spoken about his death.”—John 11:11-13.

“David, on the one hand, rendered service to God in his own generation [and] fell asleep in death.”—Acts 13:36.

“Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep in death.”—1 Corinthians 15:20.

“We do not want you to be ignorant about those who are sleeping in death, so that you may not sorrow as the rest do who have no hope.”—1 Thessalonians 4:13.


The Dead Will Rise

“Your dead will live. My corpses will rise up. Awake and shout joyfully!”—Isaiah 26:19.

“Many of those asleep in the dust of the earth will wake up.”—Daniel 12:2.

“The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.”—John 5:28, 29.

Just thought I'd say that you and your family are STILL in our thoughts. It isn't something that we passed over on the first few pages and forgot about. I think about you and your situation many times every day as I'm sure many of us here do. Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with you.

I'm so sorry for your loss, OpinionatedB. Please accept my condolences to you and yours.

There is no death outside this plane of existence. And in a higher plane, with there being no container of time, you are all together already.

She sounds like a lovely soul and will be missed here indeed.
