Thank you to all who provided support in this thread.

He passed. I fortunately was awake and able to have both hands on him as he moved on. Very grateful for that, but not sure where to go from here.

That sucks, man. Sorry to hear that. But if it's any consolation, I would assume that it was nice to have a loved one there when he passed. So take solace in that and try your best to keep your head up and move on one day at a time. Focus on positive memories for now and try your best to celebrate his life rather than mourn his death, if that makes sense.

You are good family to have. I can only hope that when I pass, my loved ones are there with me to see me through. It would be frightening to be alone.

You'll find that you've done much of your grieving already. I've had close family pass. One was sudden and unexpected. Another went through hospice and had time to talk before he lost consciousness. The first one traumatized me for years and is still difficult to think about. The family that was in hospice though, while incredibly sad...I at least got some closure and was able to say all the things that I could think of that I wanted him to hear.

See a therapist if you are struggling. I'm praying for you and your family.

Sorry for your loss, Scrub.

Be thankful you were there providing him comfort in his last moments. He knew you were there.

Take care.

Sorry for your loss. Thanks for the update. More importantly, thank you for serving your fellow man as thoroughly as you did. You shared your gifts as God intended.
