Hi De! Thank you so very much. I agree with you completely about developing distand friendships and close knit famial like relationships.
When one hurts, we all hurt.

I just spent an entire night in my dad's room at bedside with the Hospice nurse. I am weary, fatigued, wore out. The long nights were much easier when I was a lot younger.

I will catch some sleep and go back. I think the doggone pacemaker is still keeping him alive. His lungs are so full of liquid and he gurgles loudly every breath, which come fairly close together.

He is non-responsive but keeps on breathing sounding like the very end of a Coffee maker sputtering out its last ounce of water into the caraf. Loud and gurgly..
Same sound.

I think I am kinda numb cause I can't feel my face.
Getting too old for this kind of thing... I can only imagine how Ribs and DG feel... lol!!!

If zI think about this too much my emotions will get the best of me. I will miss him greatly. I have been close to him for three and half years now nonstop and long before that. So I am losing a part of me.

Thank you

Re: .Your dad."
I'll keep this short. I only want to say that I'm thinking of and praying for you and your dad. I have been for a long time, but especially now. Aside from my concern, all I can offer are a pair of ears, here for you now or whenever you need them. For me, that's frustrating. You know the feeling: I wish I could do more.

It's a curious bond we internet acquaintances have, simultaneously distant AND close, never meeting, yet forming an extended and tight family in the most literal of senses. Today, you're hurting. We are too. When you're ready to talk, your family on Bob's will be here to listen.
