is dying.. tonight, tomorrow.. now..? Hospice is keeping him pretty well sedated so that he won't be in any pain.. His breaths are very shallow and labored..he's lightly 'gasping'.. so it's going to be soon..but I had to come home for a cpl hrs and just get away from it..

He's the hubby of the g/mother I lost last year on Halloween(my b/day).. He's the one I've(we've) been caring for for awhile.. the WWII/Iwo Jima vet..the one I've lived next to my entire life.. the one I am so exceptionally close to..

He's the reason my g/mother's death was easier on me than I thought it could be..

This one's gonna hurt.


anyway.. on my way back over there.. thanks for listening.. Cry

My best to you and all concerned.  If you need to vent, yell, or just mumble...feel free to call.

Glad that he was able to have a semi painless passing. Positive energies to all connected. Celebrate the life and person.

Grandparents are the best.

Sorry, again. Hospice does wonders in making a horrible situation a little more comfortable for the family.

Got you and the Fam in my thoughts.  And yes, Hospice is amazing.  Let me know if there's anything I can do...don't hesitate to ask.
