Waiting game. Hospice told us my dad had 24-48 hours. It's been at least 72. He is starting to get a "death rattle". This sucks and I'm sad.

I’m so sorry. Went through this not too long ago myself. Pretty traumatic stuff. I hope others are with you.

@SpectralMourning thank you. We all have been expecting it for a little while.. but it is still quick in ways.
SpectralMourning · 41-45, M
@Lstovill I know. Hope his mind is far away from it all. That’s what I told myself.

@SpectralMourning they had my mom double his medication. So he's probably feeling ok.
SpectralMourning · 41-45, M
@Lstovill Hopefully so. You and yours have my sympathy.
Lstovill · 22-25, F
@SpectralMourning I really do appreciate it.

@SpectralMourning I feel like it's worse in ways to see him dwindling down than a quick death. Like, I've cried so much already, once he actually goes I feel like he won't get the proper grief from me that he deserves. Does that make any sense? I feel like it robs him and me of being all kinds of emotions

@SpectralMourning I'm just upset. I know that it is normal. But it is what I am going through. I feel lightheaded. Sorry
SpectralMourning · 41-45, M
@Lstovill No apologies. I wish I had the right words for you.
Lstovill · 22-25, F
@SpectralMourning are there ever the right words? I appreciate your empathy. I really do. I want to jump out of my skin
SpectralMourning · 41-45, M
@Lstovill No there’s really not. I truly hate it for you.
