[quote=Anonymous]My dad had a long illness (18 months) and by the time he died was greatly deteriorated and miserable. His quality of life had gotten so low and everything was very chaotic trying to care for his quickly changing needs. (He lived alone and his kids aren't nearby.) So the period leading up to his death was just stressful and emotional. I did more grieving in the last 6 months of his life than I probably did after. I would lay in bed and cry and I got panic attacks pretty regularly. Him dying was a relief. For him and us. I still think about him often and I get a pang of sadness for sure. But me personally I've had nothing as intense as the process of him dying.[/quote]
