@flyingdumbo127 Glad you got to see your nice dentist and get your tooth fixed.
@lynxstch Nice that your DH is driving around without any issues. He must be happy.
I am slowly getting used to being back to work. I am not doing everything I did before I went on leave but I have been busy anyway. It is up to them to figure out things and let me know. I am just taking it day by day right now.
I had to go back to my town to pick up the final certificates for all the legal stuff. The state office called me Monday to say they released the final cause of death. Chris did have sleep apnea and after awhile did not use the cpap machine as it caused salivary gland issues. I did ask if he should look into other ways to deal with it which I found online and his PCP mentioned but he did not want to go down the road with it. No one ever thinks the worst is going to happen. I know he had been slowing down the past year when walking and I could see a change but he said it was just from getting older. I asked if he should see the doctor but he did not want to do so. He felt it was OK. But, he was very heavy and between that and the obstructive sleep apnea, those were the causes listed. I cannot think that maybe it could have been prevented because that would be counter productive. Heart issues run in his family and I suspect that between being heavy, older, family history, and sleep apnea that it just worked together. After I got the certificates I had to go to the lawyer to drop off 2 copies so the house deed can be changed to just my name. Now I have to file the life ins claim. I told my younger son this is surrealistic. He said the same thing, that he just can't believe it is real. I am sad today. I saw the therapist yesterday and she gave me some tips on how to work with the anxiety and the thoughts about being sad and alone forever. I did talk to the turkeys outside my house today and a squirrel I saw while walking. At least they don't talk back.
On the bright side we did book airfare for next October for a family trip to Disney. The prices were good so we took advantage of it. My first time back should be with family. It is something to look forward to. Now we just have to figure out where to stay. We know it will be on the monorail. I will let the kids decide. Chris will be with us in spirit for sure.
Have a nice evening.
