Prayers for you and your family!
I appreciate all of your wishes and prayers SO MUCH!
I moved my parents in with me about 7 months ago from their home in N. Alabama. Their health has been steadily declining for years but seemed to speed up by the time they got here. Due to 2 strokes and a broken hip dad has been bedridden the entire 7 months. The last 3 months he's been in a light coma, almost unresponsive but still able to eat. Due to the rapid demise in the last couple of days, I suspect another stroke took him. It was such a peaceful passing, he was asleep and not in any pain or distress. God was truly merciful to us both. I promised him I would be with him at the end, and I was able to fulfill that promise. I know he is with God in heaven and has no pain or handicap now. For that I am grateful. I won't really have time or opportunity to grieve very much since my mother is a full time job. She is unable to walk and has dementia. She's a lot like a 5 year old except she can't remember or learn from her experiences. I have great respect for caregivers since my experiences in the last few months.
I want you to know what a comfort all your responses have been! At a time when I was feeling very alone, you all were there to let me know I wasn't. Thank you so very much.

Sending more good thoughts and hoping for the best for you and your family.
I'm glad at least your father went peacefully in his sleep.
