  • Well I just heard that my Dads younger brother died last night. A few months after his wife did. I guess I will be figuring out how to get my Dad who is on oxygen to at least the wake.
    Sorry to hear. You’ve had a rough go of it as of late.

    To be clear the wife mentioned was my aunt. At the moment I can’t practically see how to get him to the funeral.

    Yes he found out that he was ill while visiting my Dad at the ER. He ended up a patient. There’s some rough version of pneumonia going around. It hits the elderly hard and is usually connected to A Fib. Long Covid? Anyhow get the newer Pneumonia vaccine when you can, I plan to.

    @Gulfcoastguy I’m sorry for your loss and also the logistics of dealing with elderly family, failing health, and travel.  This is tough in the best of times and you have had your share lately.

    I would rather light a candle than curse your darkness.

    Yes.  @Gulfcoastguy, my thoughts are with you in these challenging times.  Sorry that you're going through this.
