Damn, couldn't be in the hospital to say goodbye, and the funeral is limited to 10, stressing big time about that and the loss itself
the pain in his voice really shook me
these are stressful times I know a lot of us are feeling it, so much uncertainty right now. it's a scary time
just know you have people that you can talk to, if talking to a stranger helps, just reach out. this place can be pretty fricking stupid 99% of the time
but when you need that 1% we got your back baws

I didn't ask, and I don't think so
he's dad had dementia and other health issues. But with the Covid 19 restrictions at the hospital and being that he's one of 3 brothers and a sister made a difficult time even more difficult

That is terrible man. Tough times all around for family and funerals. Best wishes to your baw.
Friend of mine who took care of my dads funeral last year said that now, they limit it to 10 people only and you can’t swap out the 10 for another 10. It’s 10 period which sucks.

Doesn’t get any better. My Dad died in 2013. Still miss him just as much

I lost my dad last week Tuesday. He seemed perfectly fine one day then he was gone the next. I have been spending a lot of time talking with friends and family. It really does help. As far as the funeral limitation, we are waiting for a few months for the service. 10 just isn't enough people to pay proper respects.

May 18 will be two years ago I lost my dad, hero and he was my best friend.... not a day goes by still that I’m not thinking of him

I lost my Dad at 28 in 1989.My Dad was a month shy of 57.I'm 4 months shy of 59,at present.
It blows my mind more than ever now.
I'm at peace now.I wasn't for a long time.
Your buddy feels alone.He's got to step up in the family.Be there for his Mother.
So he needs your support.On the phone,or whatever.He's been hit with the worse case situation.
God Bless him,and all of us.

Mine was 63. I’m still five years away from that now.
Still think of him daily.
“Talked” to him last night in a dream about stupid meaningless shite.
Thanks for the OP Owlie, sorry for your friend’s loss.

Such BS. Half the hospitals across the country are empty

Because non-essential workers have been sent home, elective surgeries have been stopped, and visitors have been severely limited.
It’s awful but necessary to slow the spread in a high risk place.

Dang, dieing at this time with all the restrictions has got to be tough on the family. Dang.

Haven’t been about to see him in about a month or whenever it was they locked the nursing homes down. I really don’t know how I would handle it if what happened to you buddy happened to me. Praying for your buddy.

Sorry to hear about your friend. Good job being there for him.

Have you tried getting the staff to FaceTime with you form his room? Many of our residents are seeing their families that way. Staff is making it work.

Wow, that truly sucks. My Mom lives with us and is 71. I worry about this daily with the virus. She's independent and loves to be on the go, so it's hard to get her to stay home.

Good job being there for your baw. If he doesn't need any help with arrangements, then all that is left for you is to drop some food off.
Pics of widow?

I lost my dad suddenly in 2010. The days get easier but it’s always there. I think about him everyday and hate that he is missing seeing his grandchildren grow up. I try to remember the good times we had. They were many and left me with great memories.
