My condolences Chris. I've not commented on your blog before but have followed it and your genrous postins religiously, and that includes your touching accounts of your relationship with your Father and his diminishing health. My thoughts are with you and your family.
I haven't commented before. It can be odd, this internet thing, that can be about information rather than human emotion. Your postings about your father, though, changed all that. My thoughts are with you and your family, sorry for your loss.
So sorry for your loss. I have long enjoyed reading your posts, and as someone who has lost loved ones to dementia, I found your posts very meaningful. I wish you strength on your path of grief.
Sorry for your loss Chris. You've helped thousands of us anonymous readers live a better, healthier life, so please now imagine us, spread out over the globe sending back our thoughts and prayers
I follow you but never comment really. Thank you. I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad 18 mths ago, shitty, no getting around it. Thoughts with your family. Sending love x
Hey Chris, long time reader here who really appreciates your blog. Really sorry to hear about your dad and you've been courageous about discussing some of your feelings about his dementia. Really feel for you man. -Abhay
I have been very touched by how you have written about your Dads illness, and am thinking of you and yours. Look after yourself and try to get some rest. I'm sure it's an exhausting time on every level. God bless you and all you do. I feel sure you've been a great son and will be a support to your mum this week
I'm so sorry for your loss. Echoing comments above, your postings regarding your father have been touching, tragic, beautiful and insightful. I wish you the best at this difficult time, and you and your family will be in my prayers.
Sorry to hear this Chris, I've only commented a couple of times on your blog but am so impressed with what you do. My thoughts are with you at this difficult time, Mark.
I'm a long time reader, and first time commenter on your blog. Just wanted to thank you for all that you do to help people like me learn more about healthy living and to let you know that I'm sorry to hear of your loss.
My thoughts are with you and your family. The entrance to Eiheiji reads: "The great matter is birth and death. Life slips past and time is gone. Wake up! Wake up! Do not waste time."
Thank you for providing a resource for awakening and helping us make the most of our time.

Thanks for all your kind comments, thoughts and prayers. They mean a lot.
It is a tough time but ok. I will write more in a few days.
Thanks again
