Wow. This moved me to tears and has left me not wanting to read or hear anything else for the rest of the night. It has left me with words to ponder and warm feelings for many compassionate souls out there. Some time has passed since this post, but I know it is still fresh and you are still living it. You are not alone. There are some great words on this page that should be read over many times. I’m sorry Dan.

I just happened over here from cre8buzz and read this. I am so sorry.
You have lots of great advice here. Mine usually goes something like this: Try not to forget to take of yourself as you face this, it will help you take better care of him and any others who rely on you.
Peace.

Love him. Let him know you love him. Tell him everything you always wanted to tell him but were afraid to. And do it while he knows what you’re saying to him.

I am sooo sorry to hear this, or that you have to deal with this.

My thoughts and prayers will be for you and your family.

I have so many words running through my head…but I offer an ear. And my thoughts of some kind of comfort. I know it will not ease the worry, the unknown…yet an unbaised mind and just knowing you are heard can just help with some relief.

Peace Today my friend,
Jodi

Dear Dan
Having lost my Dad and leaving much unsaid all I can advise is that you treasure the time you have left and value what has gone before. And if I can echo Kristina know you can vent here and ask for help [even if it is long distance] any time you fell like it.

My heart goes out to you and your family. My next door neighbor has had ALS for three years. She can’t do much for herself, but she can still smile and laugh. Her husband took her to a Bruce Springsteen concert and she loved it.

Give him all the love you can. Stay strong. We’ll pray for you.
