Oh geez, I hope he is ok. Does sound kind of heart related. But you never know. I just saw where you are thinking that he just wants to die. I knmow a lot of older folks get like that. I could sort of see it. I mean, I can see MYSELF getting like that when I am old. It is hard for all of us and even harder for some. But Denise is right, it's too bad more people refuse to take a simple little daily pill that would them be so much happier and content. THen they might not look forward to dying. So sad and definitely very very hard for those that love them and have to watch. Maybe you can talk to his doctor and have him suggest an antidepressant. Maybe he will try it if the doctor suggests it. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers and hope he can overcome this. -- Piggy's Pad
