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.

>>107490I 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?

>>107489>for the first time I felt [my dad] didn't know me>he has no abilities now besides getting spoon fed>[the nurse] said he'll live as long as he keeps eatingIt'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

he has a living will which means we will let him either starve to death or suffocate
anything more is homocide

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.

>>107498um.. 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.

seemed like he was going to go for sure earlier this week but he's improved a bit. he's got a vein in his neck which is pulsing. I saw it when I was down there and didn't really think much about it but the nurse told my mom his BP was causing that. he didn't eat much for a couple days but was better yesterday at least. poor old guy.
that's why when you guys tell me to kill myself I always say, 'when the time is right.' I hope I don't miss my chance though.

I was in a car accident and several brutal fights before that. I struggle with cognition and get really frustrated sometimes. I get confused and stressed out easily. Its not so bad though. I got to reproduce, my woman hasn't left me and my investments ensure we can live a decent life. Smarts are like looks. Use em while you got em so when you lose em youre set.
Death's similar I reckon. The guy I was died but I'm still here in the same body, still soldiering on with lots of his memories but little of his ambition or ability. Shakespeare said that in his life a man plays many parts. I think he dies a lot of little deaths too.
Life changes us and our perspective, often radically. What of the person you were? Gone but not forgotten and still influencing events. The final catastrophe isn't so final at all and should be taken with a generous helping of salt.

dad is on O2 now. they think he might have aspirated some of his food, even though he's barely eating. he hasn't had solids in months. I feel like this is the end... soon.
next week I'm supposed to travel to south carolina for a semi-national meeting for work. I'm not worried about missing the meeting but I can't really just blow it off and go wait for dad to die when I have no idea when that will happen. I feel like I'm going to travel and then it will happen and I'll have to cut out.. or maybe cancel before tuesday.

We put him in the ground yesterday. Most of the things I was dreading were just fine. the selection of extended family that came were all good to see... I was mostly not into the people of my generation but only one came and it was my favorite of the bunch. I'm talking 2nd cousins since I am the youngest of all the first cousins. all the 1st cousins were there except the oldest who died a few years ago and we took a photo to commemorate the fact.
some of my dad's business associates came and mom's friends from out of town.
I've stayed with my sister who lives in the area and we get on great. my brother rented a house near my moms, oldest sister stayed with mom. I get on good with them all. oldest two don't like each other but have been nice. there was some BIG drama between the two sisters and mom for a day but it was about non-sense like getting the obit out on time snd stupid sh¡t like that. it blew over thankfully and we all had a good day yesterday. we had a couple gatherings before and after the event and it was just nice telling stories and remembering dad and catching up.

yesterday driving back to my sister's house after the post funeral gathering I wished I could hug dad one more time but I hugged him the last time when I saw him in december. he was bony and frail and unable to hug back. his body is now in a box under six feet of dirt but where is he? where do we evaporate to when we die? as a reluctant nihilist I'm pulled back to spiritualism with these questions.
