Just checked in here for the first time in awhile. Silenus, I’m so sorry to hear this news. You and your wife are in my prayers: may her passing be gentle, and may you find comfort. And by all means grieve how and when grief hits you. It will.
Take gentle care of yourself, silenius. May you both find peace
Thinking of you, silenus.
There’s nothing I can say that won’t sound cliché, but you have my condolences.
Stating the obvious, it’s been a week since she was expected to last a day. With no communication from @silenus since this sounds like “Overdue and presumed lost”.
We’re here to help when you’re ready for us.
Ditto what LSLGuy said. No rush, but when ready.
I offer my sincere condolences and prayers in your time of need.
As do I. Keep your chin up, silenus, and know that there are many, many Dopers in your corner.
She is still hanging in there. Everybody including the doctors expected her to pass last week, but she is very stubborn and will go when she is damn well ready to, and not a minute before. No hope of recovery, and before too long even the strongest person will not be able to keep things at bay. At least they have moved her out of ICU and into a quieter room, and are allowing us visitation rights.So her sister and I go every day, hold her hands and try to tell her not to worry about things.
Then we go home and cry a lot.
At least the cats will keep me from being totally alone in the house after family goes back home.
Thank you all for your prayers and support. It means a lot.
Thank you, silenus. I hope she is comfortable.
Treasure these last moments, as painful as they are.
We will be here for you when you need us, and when you are ready to be here.
I’m thankful you have this.
Wishing you strength in her and your hours of need.
I’m thinking you both every day.
You’re in my thoughts as well.
So happy y’all are getting to be with her.
Thinking of you. Peace.
This may be the saddest thread title I’ve ever seen, it stopped me cold.
So very sorry this is happening, Silenus. Wishing you strength.
mmm
This.
I am so sorry.
This. So very important. Glad to have a bit of light in these dark days.
Thinking of you.
Just saw this, I don’t wander into this forum often. Sending you my best and keeping you in my prayers
