Today is the worst day in my life.

Great advice Patti! Should also apply to kids I try to forgive mine even when he won't forgive me. Mine is still young, so hopefully we have years and years of forgiving each other ahead of us.

the hardest thing about growing up is forgiving parents for being human beings. Its a far too high standard children bring from childhood into their teens twenties and thrities even to the hardcore folks who never make the realization

You are so right. I had great parents (still have one of them), but there was still stuff I hung onto for a long time. My wife had a harder time growing up than me (most people did), but she made such a strong effort in her late 20s/early 30s to try to understand them and why they did things they did. She did a good job (so did they).

Josh I don't know you, but I feel for your loss. My family will keep you in our prayers.

As Well I don't know you but have added you and your family to our prayers, My condolences.

Life is too short to hold grudges & not forgive everyone for everything, including YOURSELF.

I lost my father July 4th 2003, lost my Wife 11-11-2008, Just lost Her Aunt Becky after being very sick for years.
My list of losses include 16 close family members over the last 12 yrs.

My Wife Chantel and I had been arguing for some time but we working things out and trying to move on.
She stayed up and I went to bed tired from the days workload.
I woke up to find her in the early am, she had a massive heart attack nothing could be done to save her.

I am heading to Edmond Oklahoma in the morning to bury Chantel's Aunt Becky, she just passed.
They both used to joke about the other one couldn't die before the other one.
Aunt Becky survived Chantel by 2 yrs and 11 days.

I know loss, and understand everyone goes through it differently.
God Bless you and yours in this time of loss.

Ron

...Yeah I know all about work-related injuries! Ha, ha, ha... I still haven't settled with SCF, the State's insurance carriers...Of course the lawyers are making $$$. It's sad. 6 yrs., and they're treating me worse... They owe me so much money in back pay for unemployment compensation for that work-related injury.

What was your work-injury about ?

And what happened to Josh?

Josh has been posting regularly in the "Roo Rally" thread ... He and Rose have been showing our "Down Under" friends a good part of the country the last week or so, and he's commented on how the diversion has been helpful to him. I imagine he'll check back in here when things calm down in the next few days or so, Patti. No worries - he seems to be doing ok, from what I've read.
