[quote=Anonymous]A couple weeks. My dad had been diagnosed with Parkinsons 10 years before he passed. The last 3ish years before he passed he'd declined a lot. He died suddenly and unexpectedly and my mom and I got to the hospital 5 min after he died after I helped my mom make the decision not to do any interventions. Long story short he wouldn't have wanted to live with what they would have had to do to save his life. Here's the thing. I'd already mourned the loss of my dad before he died. I was a daddy's girl growing up. But by the time he passed, he was not the dad I knew. The Parkinsons had already robbed him of so much. So I'd already mourned that. Also, as a nurse, I knew how much more Parkinsons could rob him of and I was thankful he had a quick passing and never got to the advanced Parkinsons stages I've seen. I was 35. [/quote]
