anyone here lost a parent?

>>my dad is dying. I mean we're all dying but my dad is actually dying very soon.

>>he's been in memory care for almost three years. he went from just being old to totally losing the plot during covid. it sucked because we couldn't get him to a doctor or even really getting a formal diagnosis due to covid restrictions and lack of doctors doing their fucking jobs.
>>for a while we had a nurse help my mom during the day then leaving after putting him down for the night. that didn't last very long though because he would get up in the middle of the night and leave the house. he always wanted to go 'somewhere' just had no idea where. he was big and strong but out of his mind and mom couldn't handle him.
>>we were all terrified of putting him in the old folx home and how he would react but by then he was far enough gone that the transition was easy because he really never understood his situation fully. he'd say he wanted to go home but didn't really know where/when that was.
>>and that's how it's been for the last few years. mom would go see him a couple times a week. my sister who lives 40 mins away would see him once or twice a week. he could talk but not really ever get to a point. he appeared to recognize us but not fully understand the context of us.
>>when I visit mom I go see him every day and take her when she wants to go.
>>mom has since sold the house and moved into a separate independent living facility. she was a stay at home mom and needs lots of help just managing.
>>I'd been down there last in august and dad really couldn't communicate. he'd start sentences but was unable to finish. for the first time I felt he didn't know me.
>>I was there last week for xmas and now he's def on his way out. he has no abilities now besides getting spoon fed. he's been 'in hospice' now for several months. he's still at the same place but hospice nurses come see him twice a week plus when needed. he's getting pain meds but a low dose.
>>I spoke with the hospice nurse and asked what the timeline is. she said he'll live as long as he keeps eating.
>>I'm back home now but mom sent me a text saying the hospice nurse told her she thinks he's entering the end stage. not eating, bp/breathing signs, no response to being moved.

<<I haven't green texted in a long time so not sure I'm doing it right.

I wish I was on the other side of all this. I'm okay with him dying. He would not have wanted to live like this or even how he was before he went into the home. He and mom have living wills that say nothing will be done when they are on their way.

mostly I just wish I didn't have to go back down there and go to a funeral and probably see extended family that I care nothing about. I don't want the sympathy and cards I'll get. lol I don't own a suit any more. do I have to wear a suit to his funeral?

My mom had come close to dying twice, once around the covid years and once when my dad lost her blood sugar monitor and started over feeding her sugar because he thought she was low (retard). I'm fairly confident given their other issues one or both of my parents would have died by now if they took the MRNA jew goo but thankfully their low iq rolled over into making them based enough to resist such obvious propaganda. I'd personally witnessed many in my friend group who lost parents "suddenly" in that immediate vicinity so I consider myself blessed that my retarded boomers are still alive and well.

Sort of. My mom is still alive but is badly brain damaged. She isn't all there anymore.

I have similar fears for when my parents die. I don't think many people are going to show up to their funerals though since they're pretty isolated.

You can wear anything you want and stay as long as you're comfortable with. If people want to judge, let them judge. Does it really matter what extended family you don't care about think about you?

It's truly disgusting this culture that farms the elderly as cattle. He lost his ability to take a dignified end long ago. You should have written a sign for him explaining his situation back when it originally began happening, so he could have taken his own life as a man instead of decaying into a zombie

I mean.. I would have. but that's not how it works
you will get charged if you help them along
he has a living will which means we will let him either starve to death or suffocate
anything more is homocide

>he has a living will
Had to look this up. If I understand correctly it means that he specifically chose for this treatment in this scenario. It's simply laying in the bed one made. Unfortunate and sad karma

No, but my mum did have a very bad stroke recently, and will need to be rehabilitated for the next year.
Her long term memory and emotions are all there but she can't speak for now.
I am beyond furious at her GP for not doing enough to prevent it.

um.. a living will just tells people what you want to happen when you're no longer able to say.
he literally said 'don't do anything to extend my life'
if you don't have a living will they will keep you living as long as possible on a pump.
