The end

I am so sorry to read this.  This happened with my mum. I know you can’t have a conversation with him, but keep talking to him, they say the hearing is the last thing to go, so I believe he will hear you. 
Im not much help I’m afraid, just wanted to reach out.

I am sorry to read this. Sorry I have nothing helpful to say but I did not want you to think I was ignoring you, whilst answering others.

Chelle has given you good advice there I think.

There are other groups you could join here too, the friends and family or carers group where you may be able to speak to other's in your situation too if that helps.

Hi Jill83

Firstly I'm sorry for your pain. I've just been through very similar and we all react and have different coping mechanisms.

My dad has been seriously ill for a very long time and I recently found his cancer had again spread inc to the brain, he was admitted to hospital for kidney problems amongst other things but the outlook was he'd recover to go home. Spoke to him regular on the phone but he did say he's now had enough, all we hoped was we could get him home for what time h he had left. Unfortunately he took critical and we were told the next 48 hours would tell, he stayed conscious for another couple of days and hope again lifted but they say calm before the storm and the following day he was asleep,  48 hours later he had slipped away peacefully. I look at our messages and constantly talk to him and miss him dearly but I'm comforted he's not suffering, the shell has moved but he'll always be in my heart x

Keep talking to him, they say they can still hear you xxx
