My mom died 4 months ago
My mom had pulmonary fibrosis. She was sick for a few years. It was funny how when my grandmother smoked, my mom would always say-I’m gonna die from second hand smoke. My mom never smoked.

Ann, I am so sorry about your Dad. Reading your story I think about how my daughter must have felt watching my husband pass. She insisted she wanted to be with him at the end but watching him struggle for that last breath is not what I had hoped her last memory of him would be.
It's hard to grieve when you are angry because your Dad is gone and the people who were supposed to help him didn't. I know I felt that way too. But this insidious disease, cancer, knows no boundaries and strikes at any age, randomly it seems to me. All we can do is pray that some day soon they will find a cure so that others don't have to go through what we went through.
If you ever need to talk, or just vent at somebody who is not so close to you or your situation, please feel free to contact me.
Try to find some peace in the knowledge that your dad is no longer in pain, being mistreated by nursing staff, but he is in a better place, watching over you and guiding you from a distance. God Bless!
