Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] About my absence--my Dad passed away
Hi all,
I wanted to let everyone know that my Dad passed away May 4th. While
he had had ups and downs over the last year with breathing problems,
it was completely unexpected. He went into the hospital for his
emphysema,
was about to be released, then the next day he began showing different
symptoms. It turned out that his colon was bad. He died 3 days after
emergency surgery.
My Dad and I were very close. When I couldn't work anymore he allowed
me to live in his house without question. As he aged, I began taking
over control of the household and then his medical needs. When he
was
put on oxygen last year, I helped him learn the equipment and
remembered the things that were too much for him to deal with.
I am not with the program right now. I am sort of checking the group
and the IslandRoutes (Portuguese Hawaiian google group). Cheri is
normally in charge of this group, but will also keep an eye on the
other until I get my brains together.
I appreciate everyone's patience as I slowly get back into the swing
of things.
Thanks!
