Lovemypresley Posted April 27, 2006 Posted April 27, 2006 Dad passed away around 6am this morning in his sleep at the hospital. I just spent 2 hours with him...god this so so hard. I am in shock. The dr. came in and he's in shock. He was doing better, and he thinks it was a blood clot to the lung....I can't believe he was only diagnosed 7 weeks ago. damn this cancer hell. Quote

Lovemypresley Posted April 28, 2006 Author Posted April 28, 2006 Thanks everyone.. I'm sorry I misled you. I was not with him when he passed this morning. They called and I went up after he was gone and spent a couple of hours with him... ..and yes, I wish they had done the surgery first. His dr. said in hindsight, they should have....this was just so so fast and I never said goodbye. His drs. office called me today and she said she was showing everyone his picture (she took it at his first appt. a few wks ago) and no one could believe this, as he looked so healthy. She said now it could have been a little piece of the tumor that broke off and caused an embolism..it's all speculation though..however, I wish I knew but we are not doing an autopsy to find out. I just have so many whatifs...I know that's not healthy. I'm having such a hard time...I suppose I will move down to the grief forum now. Thanks again and good luck to everyone. Quote
