Thanks to all of you who responded to my post. I was looking at pictures of David today and of his boys and Mary Ann. I did a lot of crying but it felt good to see his face. My husband Tom and I were at the hospital with David when he had the last proceedure. The anesthesiologist came in and was asking David about his daily medications. He listed them for the Dr. and I was shocked. David never complained to me ever about pain nor did he ever act like he was in pain. I could hear his breathing and could notice the effort it took him to speak but he was so brave!
When we talked, we talked about our kids and spouses and what we were both up to. David always wanted to know what was on my mind, what I was concerned with. And then he would tell me he was praying for me and my family. He was a good brother. cheryl k
