sucks really....

Not literally, but it may as well have been. I was holding someone's hand when they finally passed. This was after being in tremendous pain for at least two and a half hours. It got to the point I was praying they would just go ahead and die so they wouldn't hurt anymore.

Yeah, sucks is a good word for it.

Yeah, I was there for my uncle. Like Jimmy, I wanted him to be at peace as an infection just overtook his system. Still, would not have wanted him to be alone.

My mom I was with all night, kept telling her to 'let go...' She did when my brother came and I left. I guess I was glad, I was just too worn out.

Lots and lots--to me it is nearly a supernatural experience.

I would just like to nominate this for "most depressing thread on the forum."

I agree with this assessment.

 

[GotZoom]

Yes. There are no words to describe.

Something that will stay with me forever.

 

[Zhukov]

Nope, and I hope that I never do. Don't think I would take it very well.

My son.

Prayers for you tonight. :hugs:
