I know two people who at the end stage at the moment. Its hard for anyone to be around them because it is so incredibly sad. There is no question they know too...but they can't stop at all. I know you did absolutely everything and more you could for him, supported him,loved him, cared for him.
I hope you continue to take care of you. I am praying for you and sending you lots of love.
Stepping onto a brand-new path is difficult, but not more difficult than remaining in a situation, which is not nurturing to the whole woman.- Maya Angelo
You've given so much to the people, like me, who come here needing to know they aren't alone. I hope you get some measure of that back, and can feel the love and concern that we are all feeling for you at this very difficult time. Know you are loved.

O Ness, I am So Sorry! I can't fathom what you are enduring right now. KNOW you Will be and will continue to be in my heart and prayers. And I can pray! I have a son who is an A, I come here b/c of him a lot. His Dad is an A who "should have" lost the fight a couple of years ago. He is full fledged into his disease and it is amazing to us he is "still with us". Oh my. My heart breaks for you. God Speed, and grant you a measure of comfort, rest and endurance. ((((Ness))))
Ness - I am so very sorry for you. My heart aches in hearing of your story. Please know that there are lots of people who care about your story and your life. Please come back and keep us updated. Be gentle with yourself.
I'm so sorry for your loss and pray to HP that you continue to draw strength from the power of the program. Alanon has been with me every step of the way....during the active illness, during the loss, and during my continued healing and journey.
