Two weeks ago yesterday we buried Mom’s remains, and Dad stood up strong and addressed us all. And now he can’t stand up at all. Very quick decline.

My next door neighbor had the Priest read him his last rites yesterday. I went over today to give them a card and his wife said he isn't going to make it. He was in Hospice at home. Four hours later he's outside and came back in and had dinner. wtf?

Sorry to hear this impending loss so soon to losing your Mom.


Hope his transition is peaceful and surrounded by those that love him. Glad you have a sister that understands the process and needs. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

briefly talked with Dad this morning, he was very weak, doubts he'll see tomorrow (we have aides getting the house set up for him going home tomorrow, that may be a pointless exercise), and my other sister should be landing in Cody in another 30 minutes and will go straight to see him.

he has a family that loves him, you can't ask for much more than that. and per his wishes, he'll leave a nice inheritance for his kids.

They will take good care of him.

Good to hear you got to talk to him.

They'll help you guys adjust meds, and make the other decisions that need to be made.

I really feel bad for you Doug, because I've been exactly where you are, and it friggen' hurts. You're lucky enough to have family. Lean on them....lean on each other. And lean on us here, your dysfunctional other family of complete weirdos that aren't suitable for polite company.

Sorry to hear this. Glad the family is around and supporting each other. Mom was also cared for by Hospice and it was a true blessing for all of us.
