Evangelion Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 My great-grandfather passed away on Monday morning after seven months in a hospital/rehabilitation center following a stroke and several consecutive "mini" heart attacks, which also caused him to fall and break a number of bones in his hip. He made very few signs of improvement, and about a month ago, he stopped eating. He was in so much pain that it was all the doctors could do to make him comfortable. One of the more unfortunate parts of this is that his wife didn't realize the condition he was in, and that he wasn't getting better, until Sunday afternoon when he went into a coma. Anyway, the funeral is today. I myself am not a praying man, but if you guys could keep him and my family in your thoughts, I would appreciate it.

Questioner Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 I will remember to pray. My great-grandfather died five months ago in a similar condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aulian Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 All the best man, you're in my thoughts. I'm going through a similar situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 I lost a grandparent through a similar means. Whilst I never really felt anything at all myself (and I mean that in no disrespect to my grandmother) I saw the pain it caused my family. I wish you all the best.
