May God strengthen you as you walk this journey. It's hard to watch your loved slipping away slowly from you. That was sweet of you to get him the ice cream and I'm sure he loved it even though he was not able to communicate it. I'm glad your son is able to be there with you. Love your terrace!Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757963698816530787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2857159910102323096.post-18043656270300255692022-05-15T04:51:39.584+02:002022-05-15T04:51:39.584+02:00I'm sorry also.

Tranquilisers make one sleepy. That was so thoughtful of you to get him the ice cream. I remember when we had to say good by to my daddy. He could no longer eat at the end and it was difficult but i firmly believe his soul lives on in heaven. I will pray for God's strength to get you through this. It's so very hard.

It's a hard thing, watching ...I'm so sorry. It's a hard thing, watching a loved one decline. It was hard enough with my mother-in-law--I can't imagine going through that with a husband. I know it's hard to visit only to have him asleep the whole time. But I think on some level they know we're there. We went through the swallowing problems with my m-i-l, too, and getting food the right consistency that she could get it down. I'm glad your son and grandson are coming and you have the cats and friends.

I see things like that where I work, and it never ceases to touch me and break my heart. I can only imagine your feelings of grief and loss right now, too. <br />Here is a huge virtual hug: (((((((((( ♥ ))))))))))<br /><br />I am glad you have many happy memories to comfort you, and you son is a tower of strength for you too.<br />May God uphold you, now and always.Meezer's Mews & Terrieristical Woofshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04474970770415529999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2857159910102323096.post-61273018133232495102022-05-13T13:15:21.258+02:002022-05-13T13:15:21.258+02:00I never wanted to see my father in his final awful...I never wanted to see my father in his final awful days, so it's a good idea about Toby. I am pleased I didn't see my father in his last days and my memories of more vibrant person are strong. You have began grieving already and may it ease sooner once the time comes. And to add, you don't have to be strong. Just do what you have to do and survive.
