I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while....as you can see below, Bill passed away on the 23rd.   (Tuesday Morning)  He got a lot worse on Friday night and I called Lisa home.  She came Saturday Morning.  All day Sat, he took sips of water and sips of coke, but didn't respond much to us.  I think he knew we were around, but didn't talk to us.  Sunday he didn't not call my name or say a word all day.  Monday he seemed a little better and kept saying "home"..."take me home."  I told him I loved him and he was going home to be with Jesus , his mama and out little babies....He said, "Hurry."   Monday night about midnight, I heard him call my name and I got up and his breathing labored.   The rattle was in his chest.  I got up in the hospital bed with him and lay with my arm around him for about 15 minutes and then I knew he was getting worse, so I got Lisa and Gary out of bed.   We stayed by him and talked to him . I called the hospice nurse about 1 oclock and I heard him call my name while I was on the phone with her.  I went back over to the bed and Lisa was trying to give him water, but he couldn't swallow.  Then he started hemorrhaging through his mouth and nose.  Ryan and Lucas stayed in the room the whole time.  Ryan would go get towels for me and they were both "troopers."  That was a good lesson for them about life and death.  Neither one of them cried, but when the hospice nurse came about two oclock...Ryan broke cown and cried out loud.  That's the hardest I have ever seen him cry.  All of us cleaned him up and the funeral home came...(my brother-in-law was the one who came to pick him up)  I kissed him goodbye and cried as he went out the door.  But I felt relieved in a way, because he suffered so long and so much.  He wasn't suffering now.  He went peacefully.  Gary told him to go to God and that we are all on the same path!   I'm ok...just exhausted, but feel at peace about his death.  He told me he was ready,  and I told him he could go....that I would be right behind him and he said, "hurry."    Look at the obituary below.  Love  to all my blogging friends.
