Strength δύναμη.
A series of illustration created whilst dad was in Palliative care – from 11 Feb – 29 Mar 2014.
Strength visited me that day. In a dream.
Letting go. 1 – 21 March – I let him go. I tell dad to do what he needs to… we’ll be ok…
That was a difficult day for me. 21 March. I’m not sure if it had an impact. One week later – my father wakes up, his first words. “I want to die”.
2 days before he passes. This is no way to live… let him go.
Goodbye. A life without you.
Sometimes you just gotta get stubborn in the face of it even if it wins as it will. But cancer cannot rot a human spirit or soul and therein lies our victory.
Yes!! totally agree.
this is so powerful. it doesn’t seem like it, but letting go sometimes takes even more strength than holding on. you gave your father a gift. ♥
Thank you so much. I hadn’t expected the affect it would have on me… I rarely tell anyone that I’m letting to… a just do it. Still… all a great lesson and don’t regret anything. Thanks for visiting :)
Artfully and honestly expressive at such a time in your life. My condolences…
Keep illustrating :)
Thank you so much, it was a difficult time for me, when I look back, I still can’t believe and raw and honest I was about it. Thanks for visiting, I appreciate your comments :)
