Evening guys. I have been up with my dad yesterday and today. He took a turn for the worse yesterday. He hasn't eaten or drank in two days now and can't wake him up. Hospice was there today and is trying to keep him comfortable. Always knew this day was coming but still never prepared.

I am so sorry Troy. I just saw Beth's post on FB late yesterday. Like Dave said. Even if you know it's still hard to be prepared.

Evening guys. Well as some of you know already my dad passed away this morning. Went quicker then I thought it would. The hospice nurse expected him to hang on for a few more days. I'm glad he went quicker. Couldn't have a picked a better day being it was Easter.
