    Just got the dreaded phone call from the nursing home. Hospise says it could be 30 mins or a few hours, but the time has come. Wifey is over there with my mom and dad right now, shes on her way home to bring me the truck so I can go say goodbye... NUrse says he can hear us, but does not respond. He is NOT in ANY pain. Grandma is telling everyone to just go home...:cool:

    I am just numb at the moment and feel a little lost.... No one close to me has ever died. I have never felt death.:(

    I hate to hear that bud. Letting someone close go is one of the hardest things a man can do in life.

    I will keep your family and Grandfather in my prayers.

    I know what you are going through... My Papa passed away last October with hospice taking care of him. It is always hard to deal with but if you believe in God and heaven then just remind yourself that he is going to be in a much better place. Last few years was rough for me I lost 2 best friends and my grandpa.

    You and your family are in my prayers.. :)
