Talk about the end or no

I'm visiting with my dad, he's so weak from cancer, he can barely talk every couple hours. I have not been talking about Heaven or him leaving earth in any way. I know he's sad and nervous of how aggressive this cancer is. Should I say You'll always be with us? I did last week in passing quickly, but I want to say it again. He could pass any day. Or just hold his hand and say we love you???

I"d make sure he knew he was loved

that his efforts were appreciated

that he is a good dad

talk about good memories that he gave you

tell him he doesn't have to talk if he'snot up to it.

We@Pretzel Yes luckily I told him already of our happy memories, and that we love him. But I want to say wherever he's going next, he'll be with me. I kind of said it fast last week, but it's really hard saying goodbye. 🙁 He can still talk and hear us. I guess I just need to reassure myself I can still talk to him when he's not physically here anymore ☹
