I haven't been on in several weeks. My Dad was in the hospital and then transferred to Hospice where he stayed for a little over 3 days and passed away. He had a 3 degree heart block and did not want a pacemaker. Please keep our family in your prayers. Thank you

So very sorry to hear this. I do not know how old your dad was and maybe his age kept him from having a pacemaker. My DH had a quadruple bypass 2 years ago. He has a pacemaker, which keeps him alive. They are wonderful things. My thoughts are with you at this sad time. Hugs Sarah.

My Dad was 88 soon to be 89 on May 8th. He had COPD, CHF, Alzheimers, emphazema and dementia. We could bring him around and he would communicate but he only had enough strength to get from the chair to the bathroom and by the time he got back he was exhausted. He did not have quality of life and was ready to go and be with the Lord. He will be missed greatly.
Thank you and glad your DH is doing so well now. My DH is 62 and had valve replacement 10 yrs ago and dong very well.

Sorry to hear the news of your dad's passing. Not knowing how old he was his age shouldn't have mattered too much as far as receiving a pacemaker. My FIL had his replaced earlier this year & he is now 89. Maybe it was due to other health/personal reasons.

Yes it was. Glad your FIL is doing so well. My FIL is 86 and still mows, takes care of his house, cooks and puts in a garden. So yes, it does make a difference.

I'm so sorry, Ramona. It's hard to loose a parent, no matter the age or reason. You and your family are in my prayers for acceptance and your hearts to be soothed. I pray that you can soon only remember the wonderful times and that they make you smile.;

Your prayers are very much appreciated. We are having a difficult time. right now. Dad's 89th BD would of been this next Tuesday. That will be a hard day for me. Mom is going through depression/anxiety and is very needy right now. Hopefully the medication will get her back on track. Thanks again.
