My father passed away on Friday

My dad was 74, and has been battling cancer for the past two and half years...
He went into hospital nearly two weeks ago, as a shunt in his esophagus was causing some problems.
Doctors operated, and he came out very weak, at that stage, we were told he had between 2 and 6 months.
But he was far too weak to leave the hospital.

Then last Wednesday he started to hemorrhage, doctors gave him hours, but my dad held on. Thursday night he slipped into a coma, and passed away Friday at 8pm GMT.
It's hard to find solace...
