ON Thursday he WILL BE HOME, he is coming back as he wanted to, Funeral is 12.40 at Llwydcoed crem, at 12 he will be home, and at 12.3 they will take him there.
To ME it would sound horrendous but he BELONGS HERE at home.
(YES HOME as I have it now, I mean we all know it is unlikely we will be here much longer.)
LEGALLY they have to resusictate him and they did they term it an "active"resus, as in agressive, I heared his poor ribs crack.........................and that WAS FINE the once, heWANTED IT, the 1o mins after I held him and told him how loved he is.
Those final precious days with Rich will be in your memory for ever Ida, and in time you will take great comfort from the closeness of your relationship and the dedicated care you were able to provide to him during the last very painful months.
We will all be with you very much in spirit on Thursday, sending you positive thoughts and strength to get you through your own celebration of his life. When you say your final and personal goodbye, it will be of great comfort to know that he is now peacefully resting but will be watching over all of you all of the time.
God bless and keep strong for the kids - your are an amazing lady and an inspiration to all of us.

Oh Ida, I wanted to post on here but was unsure what words to use - I have just read your journey and i agree with everyone when they say you are an inspiration - your family are very lucky to have you. I have been crying whilst reading it - so touching. words cannot help you enough but be strong - Rich would have left feeling very very loved and will continue to watch over his family xxxxxxx

Wants to thank this great forum for the help so far
He knew how much he was loved by you all, and he will be looking over you.
I will be thinking of you all on Thursday.

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

Sorry to dwell on such a hard to talk about subject but had anyone discussed a DNAR for Rich. It means "do not attempt resuscitation",and is a decision that can often be made well in advance of the end to prevent unnecessary suffering and is often put in place on terminally ill patients. Given Rich's condition I am surprised that no one had talked this over with you.
Sorry if this adds to your upset Ida.
