I’m so sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you and your family. You can be sure that Ida will stay alive in our memories even if we haven’t had the privilege to get to know her like you. I will send her a special thought every time I hear the beautiful song “Idas sommarvisa” by Astrid Lindgren.
Haavard - my heart aches for you and your family, and I’m sure many many of us here feel this way. You are in my prayers…if there is anything we can do, please ask.
I can't imagine the grief that you and your family are going through. My daughter just turned 15. All I can say is cherish the time you have and know that people all over the world are working on projects to diagnose, arrest and cure this horrible family of disease we call cancer. One of the projects we've had in development for the last seven years, cuts the lab time from several hours to a few minutes to get an accurate cell count for cancer patient treament diagnosis. I'll pray that your daughter has a miraculous remission. Just give her all the love you can.
I am so very sorry for you, Ida, your family and friends. Our thoughts and prayers of love and repair will continue for you and your family. Hold on to all the love and happy memories you have shared with your daughter, it will help you to continue on when the time comes.
Haavard: it is only for such circumstances that the word “despair” is reserved. Faith, hope, a belief in something that is more than us, and your continuing fulfillment of other familial responsibilities will see you through this despite your thoughts and doubts. In her weakness she will need your strength.
to share what you are going thru has had a effect like a ripple in a pond it sent a wave that has touched many,when you hold your daughter today remember the wave of love that we have all felt and remember that even if it was only for a moment that little girl has left her mark on many,find peace in knowing that she has taught many in her innocence a lesson that cannot be taught only felt, aloha.......
I have a young daughter myself, and like others here, i dont know what i would in your place. That just is not fair. My thoughts are with you and your family mate.
