    John sorry for your loss

    I watched for 15 or so years my dad deteriorate with MS so many times he was rushed to hospital but pulled through from infections. At the age of 57 he passed away I still miss him.

    They used to say that pneumonia is the old man's friend, cos typically that would be the straw that would ...

    But these days it seems mostly it's an accumulation of body failures that leads to death.

    John, words probably don't help too much at this stage, but, remember the good times - they are the ones which bring a smile or a laugh - these are the ones that are important and really count.

    Regards,
    Bob

    Sorry to hear of your loss, 94 is a pretty good innings. No matter the age it always leaves a hole that can't be filled.

    Sorry for your loss, John. My Mum decided at 92 that she had had enough, announced that she was going .....and did so. It was her decision, and both my brother and I accepted it, informed the nursing home and her doctor that her decision not to be rescusitated was to be respected. Geez I miss her, but it was right then and still is.
    I hope I have the willpower to do the same when I'm just a brain in a worn-out shell.
