My Grandfather has been put into a nursing home for the last few months now and apparently today he's had another bad stroke. He had several mini strokes which is why the mid90's something year old man got put there to begin with. Please don't say anything to me on fb if you know me there, as I don't know if certain relatives know.
I'm putting this in prayer requests because I know some people pray, even if I don't, I know that community thought does have some helpfulness.
I ask that you think of his passing quickly so that he doesn't suffer anymore and so it doesn't cause too much more financial strain on my parents.
Thank you.

Sorry to hear this, Cake. I know how you feel. I lost my last Grandparent in February. She was so lively then bam, her breast cancer came back and she was gone. I pray he passes peacefully. And am thinking of you and your fam.

My Mom called me today to update a little. Apparently he was awake yesterday and knew where he was and who his sons were. This is a change from how his mind had been working the past couple of months, not knowing what was going on or who people were. He can no longer swallow and is hooked up to an iv, so he's not dehydrated, but there is no nutrition going into him at the moment. He hadn't been awake yet at lunch time, so I'm not sure if this means that he was saying good-by yesterday by being lucid or what. It's down to the matter of how he will die at this point.
I'm just not sure how to feel at this point as I had no relationship with him because of how his wife (my grandmother) behaved toward us grandchildren. I haven't talked to them in nearly 20 years.

He finally passed Friday. It took him a week and a half to die.
