On Friday 29th November, at 5pm, at home and after another bout of aspiration pneumonia...I watched my dad take his final breath.
After 8 years of this horrendous CBD, he finally is free from it. I am utterly devastated and relieved. No more pain for him, but now I feel like I’m dying inside.
He fought hard and it has been an awful few years watch him fight, choke, cry and plead for help. But he also still smiled and even thought he lost his ability to speak, from time to time a look in his eyes let me know he loved me.
My dad couldn’t speak for the past year and half but 2 days before he passed, he said “I love you Rita” 💔💗
I pray for you all, and I want to thank each and every one of you that has given me advice over the past few years.

What a heartbreaking time for you and your family. I'm so sorry for the loss of your dear Dad. He deserved more from life, but thank heavens he had you to see him through his trial.
I’m so sorry for the loss of your dad. There is never enough time is there? Even when we know in advance that they are growing their wings it still hurts like heck when they take off. May your days be filled with happy memories now that your dad is at peace. Sending hugs...
Rita, I’m so sorry for you loss but totally understand the relief. You will no doubts feel guilty in the days/weeks that follow but just learn to accept your dad is no longer suffering and you have done all you can. I wish you so much peace. Massive hugs to you xxx
Lots of strength to you . His last few words indeed are a miracle and blessing to you.
My Mother lost her speech two years ago and at times I do wish she could say something ... maybe what’s on her mind etc etc ..but in the end this is all gods will I guess .
So sad your dad got his wings but he is now free from an evil, cruel disease. Thankfully he gave you another precious memory to treasure when he spoke those lovely words to you. Now it's time to take care of yourself. Thinking of you at this sad time. Lots of love, Nanny857 x
My sincere condolences to you and your family. Hold his last words in your heart forever. May he Rest In Peace. Sending prayers for peace and comfort. 🙏🙏
im very sorry Rita for the loss of your Dad. I can understand your heartbreak, go gentle on yourself. I imagine the devastation you feel as well as his death is everything both of you have been through over the last 8years. It sounds like you were always there for him and can be so proud of. I hope the good memories come back and flood you so you can smile again.
At last peace for your dear Dad after the awful battle with this terrible disease, its those left behind that feel the pain of loss. Getting over losing someone you loved so dearly takes time, patience and understanding. I wish you well on the grief journey, be kind to yourself and go with your feelings, it's all you can do.
What a wonderful father you have had....and wonderful daughter you are. Please remember that his life story -- and yours--are about so much more than these years of CBD and suffering. My husband is in his 13th year of CBD, and I know a final moment will be coming, but iI understand that it will hurt deeply to say "goodbye,"
Sad news for a devoted yet probably exhausted daughter. He has at last been released from this horrible disease. Now you must take care of yourself. Thinking of you now... Val
I am so sorry for your loss. Keeping you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.
My father in law was diagnosed with PSP earlier this year. We suspect he's been dealing with it for the past 2 years and never said anything, and we are all so close, we didn't see it. It seems like now that we know, he is going down hill quickly. He is having difficulty talking, getting up from seated position, falling alot, and seems to very emotional at times. This is a horrible disease for anyone to have to go through. I am still in shock that there is no kind of treatment for this disease.
My heart goes out to you and your family. God Bless.
