It was 13 day from when I belive he had a uti and maybe even chest infection that just got a hold of him, he said two weeks before he was done, he was kept comfortable at home,he had a nursing team and pain meds . in the very end it was peaceful passing. My guy my love left me may 9 at 10 am.

Neil aka dude is gone but never forgotten.

Thank you to all on this lifeline site,had I never found you all here I'm pretty certain I would not of made it without your wonderful words of wisdom and moral support.

Thank you all and remember to care of yourself.

Oh Dee, I am so sorry to hear that Neil has died. May he rest in peace, finally free from this evil disease.

We are in strange times. I hope all the necessary arrangements are as smooth running as is possible.

Please take of yourself now. Get as much rest as you can. Grief is even more tiring than caring can be! Plus you will need time to recover from the physical side of looking after Neil. Use your hard learnt skills on your self now.

Sending very large hug and much love

Lots of love

Anne

Sorry to hear.

It is so unreal. A lifetime passes so fast.

I know I wouldn’t have made it through Larry’s PSP had I not found this site with the support and information on it.

Thinking of you at this sad time Dee. You know he is now free and at peace. I hope you have support during lockdown and are able to grieve in your own way, there are no rules for grieving.

Look after yourself and stay safe.

Dear Dee,

You both put up a great fight and it’s hard to let go, but now his suffering has come to an end. I’m so sorry for your loss. Your photo is worth a thousand words and yet I’m having trouble coming up with what to say at such a horrific time for you. I’m glad that he left peacefully. Sometimes that’s all we can hope for. Be good to you now!

Sending hugs XOXO

💐❤️ SewBears ❤️💐

So sorry for your loss, Dee.

Am pleased you were able to keep him home and comfortable. I hope the past few weeks will give you some comfort and peace in your loss, knowing you were sharing the true situation with Neill.

Now is time to let it all go, you will feel numb, especially still being in lockdown. Remember to eat! Do no more than you have to for the time being.

Keep in touch with us here. Many of us understand how you truly feel. You don't have to answer "I am fine" !!

Enjoy the good memories and hang in there, drift, until you feel ready to venture 'outside' again.

Love and big hugs!

I am so very sorry.

I echo what you sad about this site and all the wonderful helpful people on it. I have learned so much from all who are traveling the same rough road.

Take care, it can be so lonely not having your spouse and the closeness you have shared, no one can replace that....

I put my husband in a care facility mid April....I was so lonely and missed him so much that I went to get him last week. During the time he was gone I spent time interviewing for someone to come in daily to help me....I found a lady that will fill in most gaps. I felt so thankful he was still here to touch and love, I could not be separated from him, that will happen soon enough, I cherish every moment....

Dear Dee,

I want to apologize. You have been on my mind a lot, but my home computer seems to have devoured all my messages to you. I came into the office just now especially to write to you.

That's a wonderful picture. I am very sorry about Neil. You were, as Dee in BC, one of the first people I knew on this site, well before I was bold enough to chime in for myself. You went off on adventures, so bravely, after the diagnosis and then have lived through years of the dramatic and heart-breaking ups and downs of the disease, steadily persevering and sharing at regular intervals. It's been a long road, though it may seem too short now. You fought hard and kept Neil home and saw him to a peaceful passing. Well done.

I didn't find that having anticipated the end made the grieving easier. It was still a shock for me. Giving myself permission to rest and weep and remember and do what I could to take care of myself was the best I could manage, and I wish you all the same. This pandemic isn't helping. I hope you aren't more on your own than you need to be.

Love and peace,

Sarah (Easterncedar as was)
