Flench,
I disagree that God is punishing you.  I think he is challenging you and your faith in him, your family. 
You have no blame or responsibility in your Fathers illness, guilt is a human emotion that easily is used to fill the unexplained, remember that and never accept it as the reason this is happening to him.
All you can do is stay strong through this and spend as much time to comfort your Father, cherish him, reflect with him, and pray that its just not his time.

 :pray

Flench,

I seriously doubt you are being punished. You changed and your Dad was there for the change. If it's time for him to go then make sure he knows how much you appreciated and love him. We all face that same path, let him go with your love and that you can meet again later on. Tell him you'll also try to make him proud of you for the rest of YOUR life. That will be a great comfort to him.

Prayers from my family to yours Flench. My littleones will include him in their prayers tonight, i always think that god listens a little closer to the little ones.

To be able to change your lift drasically, shows what a good job he does as your father, the strength and courage that he gave you speaks volumes as to what a great person he must be. Its your turn to give that strengthback to him. Punished, no...blessed to have a person like that in your life, and helping you steer your course.. yes.

Keep the faith sir , if ya want to chat just PM me, glad to talk  :pray

Flench, You are doing all that anyone could have asked. Just being there and letting your Dad know how much you love him is a huge comfort to him. Nothing anyone can say will make it hurt less but you know it's a part of life. His book is closing and it's ending well because he raised a son who could and is being there for him. Yours is starting a new chapter, you have much to pass on to your kids. Let him know how much he means to you but also let him know it's ok for him to go.

May God ease your pain and welcome your Dad.

Im so sorry Flench, i went thru this with my father. Nothing i can say will help ease you pain, but of all the people you could have had as a dad, think how lucky you are that you got yours. This one thought helped when i lost my dad.

I hope the pain you feel will lesten over time. It never goes away, but the hurt does start to fade after time

You and your dad are in my familys  prayers

Flench, No words can describe what you must be going through, I assure you that you will get through this dark time in your life, hang in there keep being there for you Dad for as long as he is here, dont forget to take care of yourself as well, take a moment for yourself, gather your thoughts and strength when you can.
Your Father must be very proud of you and what your doing for him in his time of need, I know I am. 

God Bless your Father, and God Bless you. 

Your Family is in our prayers.   :pray

I've been in those shoes man...hang tough...make sure he knows it's ok to go when he feels the time is right and that you love him. Follow through, do what he would expect you to do for him...and no regrets for your life.

My heart goes out to you Flench.

I lost My Father 16 Oct 2009. I held his hand as he passed, as did my brother and two sisters.

If it comes to this, all I can tell you is how it was with us and Dad. I told him it was okay to go and just held his hand. I think he passed in peace with himself and his family.

You know, one of the things I learned from this is that our Fathers never stop teaching us how to live, and when our time does come they have shown us how to move on with dignity.

I really hope your Dad pulls through, and my and my family's thoughts are with you and your family.
