Didn't log on or do anything on the 21st. My father in law finally passed. It's been about 24 hours ago now. Not happy that he has died, but very thankful that all that pain and agony is over. Very happy that my husband and I aren't watching it any longer. His last day was very peaceful - very much unlike the many days leading up to. He suffered so from pain, anxiety, anger, and end of life dimensia. His death was not as hard on my husband or myself as I thought it would be. Hospice is great. We called them, a nurse came right away and handled everything. Amazing how just the calm and understanding that she brought into our house helped.
Tomorrow we go to the funeral home to discuss 'arrangements'. There will be only the cremation. Then we will take him to the coast and set him off into the wind. It is what he and my husband had discussed.
I think I will be taking my Mom's ashes with us and finally put her to rest as well. My Dad suggested that it is time. I agree.
So, for now our house is quiet and seems large again.
