OT Bye Dad

6 weeks ago I asked for thoughts/prayers for my dad and all the family
were able to visit him before the end of the summer including one of his
cousins who hadn't seen him for years. On 19th Sept he came home from
hospital and I was working on a coming home quilt for him to use, but
was delayed by needing a new foot control. Unfortunately after a week at
home he had to be readmitted with pneumonia but I was able to drive the
5 hours and spend a few days visiting him. Sadly that was just one
thing too much for him to cope with and he passed away quietly this
morning.

Yesterday I did finish his quilt and, knowing how sick he was, took it
to work today so I could look at it and touch it as it was sewn with my
love for him and I had it with me when my mum & brother phoned with the
inevitable news.

Oh Lizzy, at least you had the quilt to hang on to.
I don't know what to say, take care.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Lizzy. But, quite a few good things
happened along the way towards the end. I hope you continue to find
comfort in as many ways as possible.
