Thanks guys, again.

I really appreciate it.

My mom went up to see him today, and she called me with him there, and I tried to talk to him, and he's got no cognition that it is me at all. It's so weird hearing his voice, but no recognition of who I am. It hurts, but I understand that it is just the way life is.

I'm going up on Friday to see him.

I do truly appreciate the support.

Bud don't let it bring you down as well. Just imagine what he would think in full health he wouldn't want to bring you down with his health ya know. At least I know I wouldn't want that for my boy.

Boy I tell ya during those times where the cancer/medications are intoxicating the body so much things are so tough. My grandma man she cried for her mother and father at 70years old they had been gone for 40 years or more. I just couldn't handle it, it got the best of me too.

But hey theres always a light at the end of the tunnel, and don't feel objective to post any damn thing you want to get off your chest during this thing on here we will have plenty of shoulders to lean on.

Sorry to hear about your Father. Thanks for posting and letting us know. We all have Fathers, and most of us will see this day, or already have.

Thanks again fellas!

We're pushing through it.

He is to the point now where is kidneys have failed, his breathing is very erratic, and he's building up fluid in his lungs.

Sadly, the nurse said he's about to pass very soon, probably in the next 24 hours or less.



But on the lighter side, another patient next to him has throat cancer, and is slowly dying for the next 3 months.

I'm just glad my dad is going to pass soon, only because the suffering is just eating away at us.

I'd hate to be in the situation of the person next to him.

But it either situation, it's too bad.

As an update, he passed this morning at 7:35 am.



At least I got to say my final words for him not to mention I was there at every possible moment for him.

Thanks for everyone's support! It's tough being so young and losing a loved one.

I'm sorry Manual. At least he didn't have to suffer too long. It doesn't get any easier with age, I can assure you.
