I have to begin by saying that after a long and valiant effort, my Dad passed away yesterday. He was he on liquid morphine and his mind was gone and he left us yesterday.

I choose echo #4 for this month, really guided to and so glad I did all the while also feeling #13s influence in my life during this trying times. I really wanted this stage of my Dad’s journey really about peace and love and harmony within the family as he was on the last stretch of his journey back home. My brother has pretty much been MIA during this last year and a half and I along with my Mom have been his caregivers. So when my Mom told me that my brother was going to come visit Dsd either Sunday or Monday, I said that that was too late. So I called and told him to come today and say your goodbyes now. And he did come! I was relieved to see him there and told him that we’ll leave you with him so you can say what you need to say to him and suggested the phrases of Ho’ Oponopono to say, to say I’m sorry, Please forgive me ( abd I forgive you) thank you and I love you. Then left the room and went for a walk. After a while I returned and he had softened quite a bit and was sitting at the kitchen table, watching a cooking show. We then began chatting about different things and I was so surprised we were on the same page on everything that was brought up. I can’t even tell how different it was than in times past. I won’t go into detail as to what but trust me when I say that this was the first frictionless conversation I’ve had with my brother EVER!!! It was breezy, and nice and friendly.

And a half hour after my brother leaves, my Dad is gone!!! This was the last bit of unfinished business that was keeping him here. We all (all three of us had to let him go) and my brother was the last one to do it. He quietly passed away. At first I thought his breathing had changed and was silent. At that moment his nurse showed up at the door wanting to hear his lungs. She then told us that she couldn’t hear his heart beat and that he was gone.

There was so much “allowing whatever needs to happen, happen” throughout the day and into today and to think that that vulnerable heart centered encounter between me and my brother healed so much that allowed my Dad to leave in peace has been a priceless gift for me and my family.

So yes, Echos no. 4 and 13 were present in my house, in my heart, in our lives and I’m so grateful. Thank you.
