    Shortly after the original

    Shortly after the original post Jim's breathing started to change and he breathed his last breath soon after. I believe his spirit left before the last breath because I felt the most awful pain in my heart. Even though I thought it would be a relief, it was devestating when the nurse said, "He's gone."  I say, "Gone from my sight, but still in my heart."

    Debbie I'm so sorry....

    I'm sure you felt a horrible pain in your heart....you two were connected.  Rest in peace, Jim....you fought a long hard fight.

    Hugs to you, Deb.

    sorry to hear this news

    Debbie

    so terribly sorry for the loss of your beloved Jim.  He was such a fighter and very brave.  He is now pain free and will just be waiting for you, fishing every day.  You were the best caregiver ever.  May the memories of your good times together get you through this saddest of times.

    Hi Debbie

     

    You are a very strong Lady to do what you did for Jim, and know as well as I do it is not about this life but the one after it. I pray that one day all of us who have been a part of the CSN H&N will have a place we can meet in heaven just to laugh about what we went through here on this earth. I pray that God will continue to be with you and give you piece of mind peace of mind in all that you did for Jim

     

    God Be with you

    Tim
