Please don't be hard on yourself, you were able to talk to him, he knew you loved him. My dad passed earlier this year as I was on my way to the hospital. I had talked to him before that so I felt at peace with that, please hold onto that.

Oh I am so, so very sorry. Lots of hugs and strength to you to get through this time. It sounds trite but try to not feel guilty - we all do the best we can.

Jigsy, I'm so sorry. Please don't beat yourself up over the should haves. I know I already shared this with you, but I had a very similar experience with my dad. I know it is hard not to feel guilty. But you had NO way of knowing that this would happen. You were making plans to go out there and be with him long term. You were doing what you could.
I'm sending positive and peaceful thoughts to you and your family.
I'm so sorry, jigsy. For your loss and the guilt you're feeling about not making it. He knew you were coming, and that's what's important. I lost a grandparent to pacreatic cancer a couple of years ago and it was so, so hard to watch. You'll be in my thoughts.
