My dad was 61 yrs young when he passed awy from the dreaded word cancer. I say 61 yrs young as his
love for motorbikes was like seeing him and his mates as teenagers.Here i begin.....
My dad was diagnosied with bladder cancer 2 yrs previous (2003).He endured gruesome
chemo sessions,which ended with him screaming in pain.Chemo unfortunately didnt work.The cancer
progressed to bone cancer and went downhill from there.We was told as he hadnt responded to chemo
there wos nothing more they could do as the cancer was too aggressive and it was terminal.The docs
put a life span of 6mths for my darling dad.
The day before he died
was a Friday and my mum (they wasnt living together but were still friends) and i had taken dad for
the results of a brain scan.When we got there he got given the all clear and we were so happy i
cried when i got back to work.Later that day i got a call from my mum who said ur dad needs a blood
transfusion come quick.My head in a spin,i rang my partner Alex who drove me to welland hospital
(dad was too ill to live at home).I went in the ambulance with dad,holding his hand all the way
there.We got into admissions at Pilgrim hospital and was waiting for a bed.Time slowly passed by and
at 730pm we decided to feed dad cheese sandwiches.8pm dad closed his eyes.He finally became free of
pain at 0215am with my sister Amanda,her husband Paul,my brother Jonathan,Alex and i at his bedside.
One week after the docs prediction of 6 mths.
My dad grew up in Long Sutton.His dad Edward,his mum Beryl and his older brother Derrick.He
married my mum on March 24th 1973,and they had 3 children.He worked on railways then went on to
become a bricklayers labourer for Alison homes.He got poorly due to a trapped nerve and had to give
up work.But he was strong and determined and joined forces with my mum in her business MB
Valeting,cleaning cars.His passion was motorbikes he brought a Honda fireblade and had been awy on
it with his mates only the previous yr.He was my gardener.He used to come to mine and alexs house
for tea (Alex is a good cook).Hes got 3 grandchildren.Ryan who he would be so proud of as hes in 2nd
yr of grammer school,Daniel whos a cheeky little monkey and charges me,his Auntie Shell for kisses
and little Thomas whos full of life.Dad would be proud.I will never forget you dad,you left a legacy
of stubborness in me.Thanks dad............................ Id appreciate it if friends of gts will
leave messages or light candles its taken me 8 mths to pluck up courage to do this site. Also im new
to computers so it was a bit scary.....
With love to my darling
daddy,my bright shining star.

This bring's a special Thankyou
For the thing's you've done for me,
The time's when you were patient
When you did'nt have to be.
For the day's that you made brighter
With the sunshine of your smile,
The word's of warm encouragement
That made each dream worthwhile.
And though iv'e left out many thing's
For which my thank's are due,
These thing's are alway's in my heart
Next to my love for you.
♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~
I am watching over over you all
As the sun came up this morning
I watched you there below
Your hearts seemed oh, so heavy
But theres something you should know
I'm not gone don't worry
I'm just a step ahead
And i'm with you every single day
As you rise up from your bed
I am the sun that warms you
I am the moons soft glow
I am the stars that twinkle
And lights your path below
So when at times you miss me
Just look for me i'm there
For you cannot hide my spirit
It is with you everywhere ~~

~~ Love Pauline...x♥x
For Michelle xx

Common Bond
Common Bond
We have a common bond
A silver lining that binds each heart
It unites us in the end and teaches a brand new start
We've each experienced heartbreak
Like a rushing river's flow
We've felt such tears of sorrow
And we become afraid to just let go
Overwhelmed by such grief
That reveal great aches in our soul
Wondering why love hurts so much
As we loose our sense of whole
Our sunny days become cloudy
Our nights bring on a chill
We pray for a bright tomorrow
As we try to just get over that hill
We try to stay busy
Busy enough to forget our pain
And put that simile upon our face
And wonder if we're insane
We understand each other
Without ever saying a word
And with one small touch
We know that we were heard
I'm grateful you have a loving family
In whom you can rely
I'm happy you have someone
To hold you when you cry
I'm grateful to the Lord
That in His love we can depend
And I pray for each of you daily
That your hearts will truly mend
Although our lives have changed
And the pain will some what subside
I'm truly greateful for this group
With hugs and support to be your guide
This thread that binds our hearts
A bond that will not fray
I thank you all for sharing
In your special way
My words so small I give as a gift
To this group so proud and strong
But remember when all is said and done
God bless you all life long.
♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥~ ♥
We never stop to measure
Anything we might just miss
But if the wind should blow by softly
You'll feel an Angels Kiss
A Kiss thats sent from Heaven
A Kiss from up above
A Kiss thats very special
From someone that you love
For in your pain and sorrow
A Kiss will help you through
This Kiss is very private
For its meant for only you
So when are hearts are heavy
And filled with tears and pain
And no-one can console you
Remember once again
About the ones you grieve for
Because you sadly miss
And that gentle breeze you took for granted
Was just......an Angels Kiss xx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
We need you here so badly
There was still so much to do,
You loved us all so dearly
And we loved you so much to
We still feel close to you
Although you're out of sight,
Remember we are with you
Morning, noon & night.
The tear's are falling softly
Because your on our mind's,
We are following in your footstep's
Just half a step behind.
