No DK News Aftershow This Week
Added 2020-09-09 09:14:06 +0000 UTCHello everyone. I, Danny, am sorry to announce that the DK News Aftershow for this week has been cancelled.
My grandfather has terminal cancer and his state has deteriorated to a point where we cannot do anything for him other than sedation. Even that is not working, and he wanted to save the last bit of dignity he had left by checking into a hospital to not show our family his dying moments. Due to current social distancing measures we will not be able to visit him until his death.
I’m just going home from his check in and sorry about that long depressing story - I just thought I had to explain this weird limbo he is in. Anyway he meant a lot to me I’ve lived with him for about 10 years, up until 2~3 years ago so this whole experience has been very mentally and emotionally taxing.
Thus I decided to take the rest of the week off, just trying to get back into a working mental state. Hope you understand, and I will try to make up for it - maybe longer streams for rest of the month or an additional stream.
Thanks.
-Danny

2020-09-11 14:34:28 +0000 UTCMy dude (I mean that as a friend), don't make up for anything! Take all the time you need for closure, and while he is still alive, there is zoom! In my experience, the time when death was most painful is when it was unexpected. You live with a whole slew of regrets and what ifs. This is not to say that saying goodbye is ever easy, but if you put yourself in your grandfather's shoes, he would most likely only want for his family to be ok when he leaves this world. He is not gone forever, but is crossing over to a pain free life. My heart is with you and your family, as you travel on this devastating road! Don't ever feel like because he was old, that you should be alright. If only the heart could see it this way. The more time you have spent with him, and the talks you cherished, the firmer your bond was. It's not so much him passing, but how much you will miss these precious moments! I'm sure you understand when I say that if you had to give yourself for someone else, you'd do it in a heartbeat! That is how your grandfather also believes! Just look up in the sky, and know that he is still with you, and when you least expect it, you may just get a sign! Love always, Love Montes!

Sending deep compassion and love to you and your family during this painful lesson of letting go. It helps me to remember that these moments are the most human we can be, our minds and bodies as designed for processing joy and pain. We get in the way of it sometimes. Thank you for sharing yourself Danny, keep moving with the pain 🙏🏽

2020-09-09 13:34:09 +0000 UTCMy heart goes out to you. We’ve been through this with my grandparents. My brother and I took time off just to spend time with them bear the end. We sang songs and told our favorite family stories in their presence. We held their hand and took pictures of our hands in theirs. Poignant and precious. This is the time to be in their presence for a few moments more. Rejoice that you have this time and make it special. We do not know your grandparent but we know you. You are surely one of his proudest accomplishments and gifts to the world. We celebrate him for helping us to know you. Hugs and love from all who cheer you on...from around the world.

2020-09-09 13:17:18 +0000 UTCDanny, take your time. You cannot have this time back, and the Ducks will be here when you return. It is heartbreaking and soul draining to watch those who once cared for us be unable to do so again. I hope you are able to speak with him and can make him laugh like you do for us. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts.
