I had moved dad to Michigan near me last October and was able to visit him everyday until the Covid crisis. But still had many window visits and traded videos with the staff.
He was on hospice and they helped him have a peaceful death. He had no pain or distress. The long battle with dementia is finally over. He’ll be cremated here then I’ll bury his ashes beside mom in WV.
I want to thank Aging care and all the good people I have interacted with the past few years. This site was a great resource for me as I dealt with both parents on my own.
I am so sorry for the loss of your father this morning but, am thankful when you moved him near you last October you were able to visit him daily and when the pandemic came along you had many "window visits."
I'm so glad he had no pain and wasn't in distress. Like you said his long battle with dementia is finally over and now he will be beside "mom" in WV. I know the pain will still be there but, you were very loving and caring in the process as you dealt with it on your own.
May God surround you with His love, mercy and comfort!
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." Matthew 5:4
I am so sorry for your loss.
I am sorry for your loss, I send you my sincere condolences.
