My sincere condolences DrGonzo13!
What a coincidence - I had a memorial for my dear wife (RIP Nancy) of 30 years just yesterday who died after a long, painful demise due to many complications from Lupus and RA. Her vitals finally gave up the ghost beginning with her lungs and heart, 15 days in 3 hospitals. I was her caretaker for 13 long and miserable years. Her death and the empty months that followed her January death has been the most painful time of my life. At least we’re both free now. I am now dating a beautiful lady who also lost her husband of many years.
These disease are awful. Treasure EVERY moment on this earth. I am 73 now, and every day I’m here is a blessing.
May the Lord wrap you in his arms in give you peace my friend.
Best,
Uncle Ben
