Subject: Dad's gone........... msg.

He has been in a lot of pain the past 2 days. Yesterday the doctors were afraid he had an intestinal blockage... which more than likely was a tumor. They were going to run tests today, but he's been in too much pain. They have had him on a morphine drip, but he was still in so much pain.

Mom and Danny were both with him this evening and told him it was ok to go to sleep and be with our Lord. He just died a few minutes ago. Danny was able to tell him goodbye and that he loved him.

Now I'm kicking myself for not going to the hospital with him. I've had such a headache today, I just didn't feel up to it. I should have been there to say goodbye and be with Danny.
I'm thankful Dad's suffering is over now tho..... no more pain and sickness.

Danny's on his way home....... Please be thinking of him. He was crying pretty hard, but wouldn't let me come get him.

I'm so sorry V! It's hard to see them in pain though. Glad your MIL and Danny were there. Don't kick yourself, we don't know these things. Take care and please pass on my condolences. (NT) -- Denise, 8:22:56 pm, Sun, 11/11/07

Vicki, I'm so very sorry. You, Danny and your MIL have my sincere sympathy. On the other side, though, it's so hard to have them suffer and if a morphine drip wasn't working for pain control...........! I think most of us here have lost a parent in this manner and there's no other way to say it - -- - - it's hard, very hard. I'm sending a comforting hug to Danny..........and also to you.

Gerry got to the computer first this morning and told me that Danny's dad has passed away, because I slept in......I mean I *really* slept in. And he brought up something I hadn't thought of. You had mentioned earlier that his father was a retired Marine? And in that respect, we both think it's wonderful that he chose to go to heaven on Veteran's Day. I'm sure there was a huge group of veterans waiting for him at The Bridge (or at the Gate) cheering him on as he passed over the threshold. My love to you both.

Oh V, I am so sorry. You and Danny are in my thoughts and prayers. ((((HUGS)))) (NT) -- Ramona, 2:00:43 pm, Tue, 11/13/07
