My dad 2

Hello everyone, My dad passed away this morning. He had trouble breathing, so they put a mask on him, then he had a rapid heart beat but his blood pressure kept dropping. He had hypertension so all of this was bad. they gave him morphine for the cancer, and he passed away in his sleep. I am not going back up there because we cannot afford a viewing and funeral so my dad will be cremated. I really dont want to see that. My mom passed away on 6/19, so its been 2 months exactly. They are pretty sure he had a heart attack. All I know is that he and mom are together now, and neither are suffering or are sick anymore. And when I went to the doctors on Monday he prescribed a medicine for me, AXOS, which is an antidiabetic med. Kinda scary there. Thats all for now, thanks for reading.

Sorry to hear about your dad and mom Joann. I know this is a really tough time for you. I lost my dad 10years ago and my mom 4 years ago. Losing both parents so close is even harder. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Oh, Joann, I'm so sorry. Here I am checking out your happy posts about the library and being Blog Star and then now I'm just sitting here trying to hold back tears. I can't imagine losing both parents so close together, but it sounds like you are doing an amazing job staying strong. I'll be thinking of you!
