He is gone(2)



DH passed away early this morning. We were told 2-4 days last Tuesday, but he fought it until this morning. Each of the kids got a chance to say goodbye and most of us were with him when he passed. He squeezed my hand hours before. And the last words he said to me a week ago was "I love you".
I'm numb. I've missed him for quite a while, but this is permanent.
Thank you all for your support advice and listening.

Caberr, How fortunate you were to have him say those last words to you, that is something that you'll be able to hold in your heart and in your mind forever. He knew that you did what was best for him, and took good care of him, how sad it is that the only cure for Alzheimer's is death. He is forever out of pain and suffering. I pray that you can take care of yourself I'm happy you have family to be with you they truly do help a lot. God's blessings to you and your family as you start a new journey in life without the one that you loved, Richard

Caberr, I'm so sorry. Those beautiful words coming out of his mouth is something you will never forget. He is at peace. Now you have to claw your way back into a new life. I hope you can get there by remembering the good times, and forget this monster disease. It's been very hard for you, and it will still be, only in a different way. Again, I'm sorry.0
