mcm, this was so awesome of you. Thanks! Love Jack Black!
I want to go back to kmmo's post of Oct. 8, 2013. I'm not sure why I didn't respond to this at the time. I really want to apologize, because your response was so kind. Hearing about your sister's experience brought so much back to me, so I know you understand what was involved. My whole life revolved around my husband and I was able to leave and do things like food shopping and my church work only because friends would come in and be with my husband while I was gone for an hour or two. Please let me know about what has happened with your sister and her husband. I can't believe that I did not respond to your post and I apologise again.
And many thanks to all of you who wished me happy returns. I gives me the warm fuzzies! You are the best!

Sorry I missed your birthday, monday. Hope you had a good one.
I can't believe it's been a year since I posted that about my sister and her husband. I'm sad to say that he died just a few weeks after my post. It was such a surprise for us, because he had been holding on for so long. He passed away in his sleep at home. He really was suffering a lot, but it was just so sad that his children didn't get to say goodbye to him (both were away at college). My sister is now at a point where she can move on, I think. She spent so many years caring for him, and then suddenly he was gone. I can't imagine how that must have been for her.

kmmo, I am truly sorry for your loss, and I can understand what you are saying completely. My boys didn't get to say goodbye either---one was living out of state and one was in grad school. I think this has weighed heavily on them, and it has for me as well. I left the hospital to go home and get things ready for my husband to come home from the hospital. I was so tired and thought I would try to get some sleep. They called me at 2AM in the morning to say that he was not responding. His vitals were good, but they couldn't wake him. He was gone by the time I got there. There was one thing that was good about this though. When I got there, all of the tubes and the oxygen had been removed. He looked better than he had looked in months---like there had never been anything wrong with him. It was so good to see him that way, as odd as it may sound. I am so glad that that was my last vision of him. He looked healthy and peaceful.
