@dazedx3 I am sorry for what you and your DH are going through. Sending thoughts and prayers for healing.
@Pea-n-Me It is hard to lose a parent so young. And neither he nor you thought the outcome would be so tragic. It is good that you can use the experience to help your patients. You are such a kind and caring nurse and your patients are fortunate to have you caring for them.
Good morning. Thank you all for the kind words. Before I lost DH I never knew such pain and hurt could exist. I was devastated when my mother died but losing DH is on a whole different level. Of course I forgive him for not seeking medical care. No one thinks about the worst happening. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and I do know he was having heart issues looking logically at the problems he was having. Older DS mentioned possibly congestive heart failure beginning. I just feel so bad the grandkids miss out on having their grandpa, the kids their Dad, and me my beloved DH. It is 3 months today since he passed and it will be a tough one. The therapist asked me to think every day about how this day is better than the day before. Unfortunately this day will not be better than yesterday. But I will think about it each day and see.
