I am sad for you, your daughters and everyone else who knew and loved Liz, as death is difficult even when we expect it.
I am happy that Liz had such a loving and awesome caregiver and family to support her on this last journey.
Blessings to all of you. You are in my prayers as you grieve.

Oh, Bob. I am sorry that I didn't respond right away. I had surgery the next day and didn't turn on my computer for several days. Foot operations are very painful.
My heartfelt condolences for your loss of Liz and to your girls for the loss of their mom. Remember that the depth of your pain shows the depth of the love that you had for Liz. Don't let anyone cut that short or advise you otherwise. Do and feel what you and the girls need!
What a journey you and Liz had and what a nasty and evil thing cancer is and how much it takes from family and friends. I hope that as days go by that you will take some time for yourself. Grieving is very important and as very hard as it is, it's important to allow it to take place.
Don't second guess (which of course you will) what you said or did or didn't do for Liz.
My very best to you, Bob. I'm here if you need me but will be thankful that you get on with things that need for you to get on with you and the girls.
A very special hug to the three of you.
Merry
