It's Over

Dad passed away peacefully at 02:15 Sept 25th. He was with family and our Priest the evening before and seemed to be very at ease. I was there at his passing and it just happened, he was breathing one moment and then he wasn't. At least he is no longer bound by a body that was failing him. The Doctor is listing Corticobasal Degeneration as the cause of death.

My deepest condolences, Ron. That is the same peaceful way Michael passed away 4 months ago. I hope you will find peace as he is. It is so difficult to go on but knowing he is now whole again is a gift.

You were a great son and support, his greatest cheerleader. I hope knowing you did your best brings you comfort.

Time for you to rest, knowing you did your best.

Big hugs,

Liz

Dear Ron,

I'm so very sorry for your loss. Losing a father is a huge thing, even when all has gone well in their lives. We PSP/cbd caregivers know how complicated the feelings around a death for our loved ones, are. You were an amazing son and caregiver, and I hope that knowledge gives you comfort over the years to come of missing him.

Hugs to you for this grieving time XXXX

I want to thank each and every one of you for the warm supporting posts to my family and I. Since I knew Dad's wishes well in advance just about everything was in place. A few hours on the phone was all the legal work I needed to do, now just wait for the various paperwork to catch up.

I plan on staying active on the forum hoping some of my trails and errors can be of use in helping patients and caregivers here.

Everyone is very much appreciated.

Ron,

I’m truly sorry for your loss. I hope you find comfort in the peace that your father had. This is a terrible disease.

I tried to get CBD listed on my wife’s death certificate, but was only able to get degenerative disease of the nervous system.

Prayers of peace and comfort on you as navigate this next phase of the disease, morning the loss of our loved one.

Dear Ron

I am so very sorry to read your sad news.

It sounds as if your dad's farewell was peaceful which he so deserved after putting up such a brave fight against the horrors that CBD brings.

He was blessed to have you

Take care of you now x

I am so sorry for your loss. I know there is some relief in knowing that he is no longer a prisoner to this horrible disease. I am at a Hospice house now with my dad. He is in his final stages. My prayer is that he will pass quietly and with no pain. He is all I have left of my family and I will miss him dearly but I know he will be so much better off in the arms of God.
