thoughts and prayers to Troy, his family and you

[Catty1]

We had to make that decision with my sister recently, though the illness made its own decision in the end.

I am with that family.

The night before we might have to make the 'decision'(she came off life support so we didn't have to right then), I read up on some stuff where others had faced the same thing.

The one message I got is that we had to keep our own feelings out as much as possible and think of what was best for our sister/daughter.

Also, a gentle and wise nurse at ICU mentioned the difference between prolonging a life and extending a death.

I wish your friends all the best...

May his journey be peaceful and he be met by all his loved ones on the other side. Thoughts and prayers to you and his family.

No matter how long you know it is coming, it is still hard to let them go.

Lots of prayers going out to Troy. That is absolutely heartbreaking, so young and with a family. I'll be sure to send lots of prayers for his family as well.

What a hard decision to make and a difficult disease
My Grampy died of Lou Gehrig's and it was so sad to watch him suffer.
I will pray for Troy and his family.

This has got to be one of the hardest situations I have ever experienced.
I sent Troy some flowers & greenage yesterday so he can experience some of the "outdoors" (he LOVES the outdoors but is unable to go outside) before his journey begins. He really enjoys them but understandably so he has way more important things on his mind, his family. His children took today & tomorrow off of school to spend as much time with him as possible while they still can. The fact that he won't be able to be with his children is just tearing him up completely. I've been in tears many times lately, more & more as the time nears & here the tears come again.

He has just a little over a day left to live. It's so hard to believe that his death is actually planned. I could not imagine knowing I am going to die at a certain time, I can not imagine what he's going through. I feel so bad for him, more than any words could ever express.

I want to take the time to politely ask/remind yous to please keep him & his family in your thoughts &/or prayers. They need all they can get right now. Thank you PT'ers for your kind compassion.

That's heartbreaking=( I feel really bad for your friend's family, and for you because it's hard watching someone go through something like that, I know. Prayers for the family that they can find some comfort in the fact that he won't suffer anymore pain and will be at peace. It's small comfort now but there is usually not that much comfort to be had for those left behind when things like that happen. I'm truly sorry.
