[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry people felt the need to write gross comments! What in the world?

I've loved this thread. First time commenting. I'm so happy to hear about the visit with your new family. You all have handled this which such grace, the way I hope I would react in a similar situation.

I'm so glad you aren't telling your dad. What purpose would it serve? You are his daughter without reservation. He's not in a place to process this information and his life won't be enriched by it. Keeping it from him is an act of love.

I wish you the best! Please update again if you feel moved to do so.

Thank you, you're very kind.  I am not shaken by idiotic posts like that.  People like that do not understand that love goes beyond blood and "relation."  The very close relationship that I have with the only father that I have ever known is extremely close.  My step mother had the final say in how this would be handled, she also believed that it would only cause misery in his last days and would not change how he feels about me.  He and I talk daily.  I pray with him.  I am very much at peace with our decision.  His last days, he is surrounded by many that love him.  We coordinate our efforts so that he has contact morning and evening as well as letters and photographs every day in the mail.  It is any day now, he is praying to be taken quickly as he is suffering.  In our conversation this afternoon, he said that he is so grateful to have a daughter that loves him so much and that he feels so blessed.  I am not sorry, no not at all.  Instead, I am grateful that in all of the circumstances that I see in hindsight, that God saw to it that I had a dad the loved me and that I could love in return.

There will always be people that are unhappy with their own lives and thus post stupid things to shake people as they feel it gives them some sort of sorry satisfaction.  I do not give it the time of day as I know the true condition of things.  Thank you for your sweet post, I continue to post as this is a wonderful way to journal this journey.[/quote]
