It is so true how one minute you are up and the next you are at your lowest point.

After a great weekend I found out yesterday that my dads dreaded cancer is back and that there is nothing the doctors can do, but keep him pain free until the time comes. Over the last 3 years he has had problem after problem but after fighting cancer and surviving we didn't think this would happen again.

I was an emotional wreck yesterday and after everything life has thrown at us as a family i realise that life is what you make it. My dad had a conversation with us all and he said that he has had the best life he could possible have, the best wife ever and 3 beautiful daughters and 5 great grandchildren and all the wonderful memories he will take with him.

Yes i am devistated he was my world but now i have my own family, my hubby and 3 children, i have realised what he has said is true i need to live my life and make it what i want it to be and get all my wonderful memories of my family for myself.

Everyone at some point will go through ups and downs and yes it is how you make it.

What will be will be, and there is nothing we can do about it but after dad goes i will have all the wonderful memories of him and have been lucky to have had such a fantastic Dad

Really sorry to hear about your dad, you are quite right there is nothing any of us can do in this situation (went through it couple of years ago, lost my dad to a brain tumour) all I can say is make the most of every day you have left with him as you will treasure these memories always.

Sounds really odd but when my dad was still here, we were on one of our many days out and he was his usual happy, funny self, I recorded his antics on my phone, and although it breaks my heart to watch it, it also makes me smile, it is so good to see and hear him again and again. Maybe you could do the same as I promise it will be something else you will treasure.

My thoughts are with you and your family, God bless. xx

You sound like you have a very loving family and a fantastic dad ! My thoughts are with and your family. I have lost both parents, one to cancer, and know exactly what that feeling is like when you are told. On the positive side you do get to express your feelings and share memories while they are still alive it is lovely that he can say what a wonderful life he has had and you get to spend some quality time with him. The most awful thing must be to lose someone and regret never being able to have that conversation. Your Dad sounds a very special person just enjoy every minute you spend with him because it is the memories that keep people alive when they are gone. I have wonderful memories of both parents and if I ever need to reflect and put my own life into perspective its what keeps me going. It makes you more appreciative of what you have and as your Dad says you have your own life to live with your family which is what will keep you strong, and yes enjoy life because we all want to be able to take happy memories with us.
God bless you and your family xx

Today is my "big bro's" birthday he would of been 41 but I know he is happy celebrating with my other "big, big bro"

My parents have lost 2 of their children and I could not even entertain that pain they have been through

Life can deal some poo cards but sometimes wearing a plastic smile is the easiest route through life
