Great idea!

No problems asking and have had plenty of blokes check in with me  (thank you gents)

Reckon the problem now is getting blokes to be able to say "no not all right" rather than "yep all good"

Give a mate a call that you havent spoken to in a while.

A great reminder to catch up with someone who you haven't spoken to for awhile.


You don't use magic to disappear, ya use a 4x4 & Swag.

My brain is mush, so hope that you never need to decide whether too turn off the life support for a loved one or!  :'(

Foo

I cannot imagine how hard that would be, I hope I never have to do it, and I feel sad that you have had to go through it.

All I can do is say that I feel some of your pain, and hope that time will reduce some of your hurt.  Remember though that we are all thinking of you.

Thoughts are with you Foo, the toughest of decisions one can ever make. All the Advanced care directives, medical power of attorneys, DNR orders do not make the decision easier.

Thanks for that and this is very true. .  :cheers:

Rightly or wrongly my thought process is the same for our furry mates = if we let them suffer we hard considered selfish or cruel but with our family it is viewed the opposite way and that thinking is so screwed up and wrong. :'(

Foo

Thinkin of ya Foo.... ya got plenty of people here and elsewhere ya can talk to..
make use of em if ya feel ya need to.

Hope all is well with ya Foo...

Yeah goin okay thanks.  :cheers:

Not looking forward to next Wensday but my main concern is making sure that Dad gets through this.  :'(

We've been doing shifts staying with him so that he isn't alone and we've had plenty of laughs and tears remembering different antics that we all got up to and the reactions from Mum.  :)

This is what the Black Dog can do

Please talk and reach out for **** sake , I know what this does to the people left behind, and I can promise you, you do not want to go there, ever.

IT'S OK TO BE NOT OK 

It's such a hard thing for people left behind too deal with.  :'(
