Even though I don't post much, I do read alot of postings. I now need the support of loving AMOS board members. On Saturday, Sept. 3 my husband passed away, unexpectantly, as a result of numerous blood clots to the lungs. He was 56 years old. He drove himself to the hospital on Friday, went into cardiac arrest on Saturday afternoon and was put on a respirator. After spending several hours in ICU, the Drs.and ICU staff said he would continue to "code" and that my children and I needed to make a decision about resuscitating him again. We decided to have the respirator removed and he died shortly afterwards. We were all at the bedside and able to hold him as he passed from this life. I am a Hospice nurse but it's always hard when it hits so close to home. My family has many close friends and the loving support of our church family but the alone times are difficult. We will miss him so very much. Everyone on these boards has been so supportive and I just wanted to share what I and my family are going through. Thanks in advance for your prayers. Nancy

((((((((HUGS))))))))) Nancy. I'm so sorry to read about your husband. I can't imagine what you are going through, but I pray that the LORD gives you and your family the strength you need in this time of grieve. Know that although we aren't too active on the illinois board, that we do care. If there is anything we can do let us know. Again, I'm so sorry about what you are going through. May GOD give you the strength. Gracie

Oh Nancy..I'm so sorry for your loss. I know we've never met but please email me if you need anything. My brother-in-law had a massive heart attack on Labor Day and died and I still can't believe that it really happened. He was only 42. I live really close to you (Chicago Heights) so please, do not hesitate to email if you need anything. Your family is in my prayers. Wonka D
