hardest thing i've had to do. I will still talk to him everynight though to make sure he is ok. It feels nice to be home but I wish I could have
stayed longer... Im not looking forward to going to work tomorrow. Thank you all for the support. It helped so much through this tough time.

man, that made me cry. The last good bye I said to my dad he couldn't talk and I'm not sure he knew I was there. The fact that your dad is still
alert is great man.

its a touchy subject for anyone. But i feel amillion times better being able to see him and waiting on him every moment I was awake because It ment
alot to me and him and my whole family. And yes im sad I will probably never see him again, even though I had many of rough times with him like when
he called 911 on me (long story) but its my dad and I have unconditional love for him. Im still not done with this ordeal but I feel better knowing
he knows I love him and will always love him. That makes me sleep alittle easier at night (and hopfully him)

I just got off the phone with my mom and my dad passed away around 4:00 this afternoon. Its sad but also a relief at the same time. I dont know how
much longer I could have gone on with the constant worrying about his condition. He didnt suffer and went peacfully. R.I.P Dad.

Sorry, for your loss. I just finished burrying my grandfather this weekend...I hear you on the relief thing...I think knowing that they're going is
almost worse then them being gone. I can't even imagine what its like to lose a parent...I'm fucked up enough with just the grandparent thing.
I think the key is just to stay busy.

sorry for your loss guys
I am about there myself
my mom is in hospice, on oxygen 24/7 and is not allowed to walk...
the fucked thing is they have no idea for sure what is wrong with her...
she is only 53 and has been in a downward spiral for the last 4 years...
I doubt she'll last the year
she hasn't seen my daughter in 5 years
she's never met my son....
too much to think about, just gotta stay busy
and remember the dead feel no more pain, and celebrate them and their lives as if they were still here

Thank you both so much. Jason, it is such a relief because I know he isnt suffering anymore. Im sorry for your loss. Defstar sorry to hear about your
mother. One thing that put me at ease was knowing Hospice was taking care of my father. There are some really amazing people who work for them. They
did all they could to make sure my father was in no pain and comfortable. Im sure they will do the same for your mother. I know what you mean about
staying busy. Ive been working for 14 days straight to keep my mind off things, im debating whether going into work tomorrow or not though.

sorry to hear that man. you'll always be happy the last days worked out as they did though.

Lucabrasi,
I have no idea how the fuck I missed this thread. I'm not on everyday but I missed three pages. I'm sorry I didnt post sooner. I read thru the entire
thread and such an emotional time for you. The good, the difficult and the time reflecting on all of those years. I will put you and your family in my
prayers. I'm sorry you had to go thru it. This is the kind of shit you wish noone had to endure. You seem strong which is good. And it may sound
corney but anytime you need to vent make a post. Its like a hardcore support group over here. Take care.

You and your family will continue to be in my thoughts.
I'm so glad you had the chance to go down and spend some time with him.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.
