  3. Hello everyone Im newby yea well not by choice I'ts just the way it happens my dad found out back in June after Fathers day he had lung cancer they gave him 6 months if that long .He was amazing he made all his arrangements I even went shopping with him for his outfit was that weird yes.My dad still had control that was the whole thing for him I thought he was so strong and always in control til the end he went really fast in the last week.He had already given us christmas money and we had lots of talks at first i went over like 1 a week I was in denial everytime I left i cried all the way home.I was always daddys little girl even if Im 39 he was 64 years young you talk about loving to be on the go but after the cancer came in he became a home body.he had so many love ones around him.he went down hill on a tuesday i walked in he was asleep his sisters and niece were sitting there i looked at him and cried it was horrible my daddy was leaving breath by breath.The next day wed thur and fri same thing saturday he was asleep all the time I got a call 2 am from my brother said hospice isnt giving him long I just layed there I didnt feel yet so i went over 3 pm the next day I found my step mom and him in bed sleeping and her family in living room I knew it was close .he was breathing labored loud it was horrible it wasnt the death rattle it was like just smothering I went out side and someone said Teresa did you let your dad know he could go I said no.so I waited another hour and I was singing to him and I whispered dad me AND Kenny will be fine my brother wasnt there he was out riding around.I stepped out my step moms sister came outside crying with her mouth open I ran back he was quiet mouth open I shut his eyes lots of friends from neighbors were there sobbing My dad was gone i felt so relieved I didnt have to worry anymore then I couldnt believe this invincible strong man who gave me life and mom lol was gone. all we had to do is call hospice he didnt want to be revived and he had all the arrangements done .its been crazy 2 weeks and 3 days from today ..I hope it
