Last night, while being booed vociferously and refusing in his RNC speech to endorse Donald Trump, Ted Cruz said something odd. Here, let me find it on the google. We must make the most of our moments, to fight for freedom, to protect our God given rights, even if those with whom we don’t agree so that when we are old and grey, and when our work is done, and when we give those we love one final kiss goodbye we will be able to say freedom matters and I was part of something beautiful.
What a blessing to spend one's last days in the company of such great people. Your father-in-law is blessed and he is undoubtedly a good man who is grateful for such blessings.
I want to die feeling grateful for real things, like loved ones and life experiences, and not thinking about abstractions like "freedom" and "America"*.
* America is a real thing. "America" as conceptualized by the likes of Ted Cruz, is an abstraction.
I'm sorry to hear your family is having to go through that, Rebecca. I lost my grandmother last year right before Thanksgiving day, and it still hurts like a motherfucker.
I know it isn't any consolation, but I hope things go smoothly and your family doesn't have to have any more hardships during this time.
So heartbroke for you and shy, and DR losing time with a great pappy. I hope your memories offer comfort...I offer love and strength as a weird stranger who loves you all...for your good work, humanity and integrity.
Yes, that. Absolutely. We're not going anywhere, Rebecca, and I have every faith Don the Con will be carrying on until you can return. Good thoughts to Shypixel and his loved ones. I'm glad Granddad got to know Donna Rose and her sweetness.
Many of us have been there, and the rest of us will be, one way or another. And you are absolutely right -- at the end, all that matters are the people you love and the ones that love you.
My condolences,Becca, to you, Shy, and all of his and your loved ones.
Hugs hugs hugs from us at Wonkville, to you, Shy, Trix and trixlet and your fam. Our sincere condolences.
I'm so very sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and your family.
Hugs, more hugs...bless you all!
What a perfect looking grampa, we human beans sure have a painful way of reminding ourselves what (besides beer) counts.

Sympathy to you, brother/ sister /ze. I lost my sister 12 years ago and the hole left behind still hurts. I carry on her causes as she would have...
Well put :-)
Life: worth it (but can't we find a nicer way?)
Sympathy is a hollow word, but empathy I can offer....big hugs and love from a stranger who's lost as well. Human condition and all that.
i am so sorry for your stress, and grief. you look after you, and yours. we will still be here. so will the madness, i promise.
