prayers and good thoughts requested.
 
Well Jeff made plans to go back to IN on wednesday. His father is basically dieing and he wants to help his mother out. Don't know how long he will last eating a smidge of food and a small juice glass of fluids still producing urine and such. He bought a one way ticket and will stay as long as he can before the semester starts , I can't imagine he will last that much longer. he has bed sores and such, very thin. I hope that he goes in his sleep peacefully. the hospice nurse said that she thought that he was not registering pain.
please say a prayer/send good thoughts for him his name is larry.
thank you my friends.

Bizi I'm sorry. I'm sending prayers up for Larry.:smileypray: Traveling graces.

I know how severe bed sores are. I'm so sorry. I lost my dad last year.

Prayers of peace of end of life to his Dad, for Jeff and his family for comfort at his life will be missed. One day it just comes up on us when our parents lose their health.
Bizi, I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers as you are holding down the fort. It was a fortunate timing that school break is now for Jeff.

Sending prayers for Steve and all the family. This is one of the hardest
times in our lives watching a loved one pass.

My father has been gone 23 years in 3 days. But it still seems like
yesterday. Everyone has always said, he stayed alive a few extra
months to meet what was believed to be his last 2 grandsons.

He met my Derrick just a little before he died. And thankfully
we have pictures.

Bizi Thank you. I also lost my best life long friend who lived down in Mississippi. He died two days before my dad did,but I didn't find out about his death until 4,or 5 days later. I still struggle with my friend who's not there anymore. I can't email him,or talk to him on facebook. This hurts.

My dad was 92,then suddenly he seemed to not understand,or hear what we were saying. Then he caught pneumonia,and died two weeks later. I didn't like the fact that he didn't have a IV saline drip for him in that nursing home. BF:hug::hug::hug:

bizi 07-07-2014 08:51 PM

steve, maybe your dad had a living will. My f-i-l has one that specifies that he doesn't want artificial feedings or fluids.
I am sorry...
losing family and friends hurt.
((((((HUGS))))))

No matter how old we are, when a parent passes, we feel orphaned.

I will hope that your father-in-law departs this life peacefully. :hug:

Bizi That occurred to me. He may have had a "Do not resuscitate",or a"No Code"in place. My sister,and brother in law took care of those details. I haven't asked them yet. I may,but I'm not sure. I signed the death certificate. BF:hug::hug::hug:

That's true Hockey. Both of mine have passed away,and at times I don't know how to respond to my thoughts of the reality that they both are gone. I can't talk to them because they are gone. They were always there,but my mother had become emotionally distant. BF:hug::hug::hug:

Mari 07-08-2014 03:06 AM

Bizi, :Heart: :Heart: :Heart:

I hope for peace for your father-in-law and send good thoughts for your mother-in-law and husband.

I hope that you are going to be o.k. while he is out of town.

Do you have anything planned for yourself?

bizi 07-08-2014 03:59 PM

Thanks for asking Mari,
you know that I don't like to be alone so will have to stay busy.
since I started my new diet and abstaining from alcohol on july 1st, I want to stick to this and not lose my momentum. I have lost 2 pounds already and feel good not drinking.
I will probably be eating more of sandras food from the cafe that I have lunch at. they make a wonderful chicken salad. and have fresh organic produce.
may get brave and try new things. I know that I will be making more trips to the gym, may go every night to walk on the treadmill.
again thanks for asking.

Brokenfriend 07-08-2014 08:16 PM

Bizi I'm sorry that you are lonely. I hope that you have a peaceful night.

I hope that your father in law(Larry) is getting the help that he needs in this time of the end of life experience.

I pray that Jeff has the grace to go though this. I hope that I got the names right. BF:hug::hug::hug:

bizi 07-09-2014 08:12 PM

bizi 07-09-2014 10:32 PM

Thanks steve,
hubby got there when his dad was still there. So he helped his mom in the transition. The hospice nurse and social worker were there so she was not alone for too long, although I wish he had been there when she found him unresponsive. I am glad that he is there now and the other son is on his way. They don't know when the service will be. Hubby said that they will know by tomorrow.

Hi, Bizi,

What are you doing on Thursday?
Tell us your plans.
Do you see clients?
Go to your lunch place?
What else?

waves 07-10-2014 03:45 AM

Bizi,

I am sorry about this difficult time. It is a relief that Jeff's dad is no longer suffering. Jeff and his brother are there to help his mom... that will be a big help for her, and I'm sure your support means the world to Jeff.

How are you doing?

Keep taking care of yourself. :hug::hug::hug:

the 7th of July. So I am catching up.
