[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry for your loss.

But if he was cognizant enough to wonder why he was alone, I think he would  be cognizant enough to understand why you could not be there. I think the hospital probably told him what the rule was and I think he probably understood that you would have liked to be there but could not. These rules are in place for a reason, because people need to stay away from their loved ones who have Covid, but most people cannot make that decision to do that unless they were barred from going in. I think he probably understood.[/quote]

I posted this. Also, both of my parents have dementia. It is awful. No, you would not want your parent to die after years of dementia. It is awful.[/quote]

OP here. I’m so sorry for your parents. I just feel if he didn’t have any understanding of what was going on I would be in a better place.  I’m so mad at myself for not getting some scrubs and sneaking into the hospital even risking getting arrested to see my dad for one last time to hug and kiss him and tell him I love him for just one last minute.  I wouldn’t care if I had to spend a week in jail!  cry:  :cry: [/quote]

I can’t imagine your dad would have wanted that for you. I’m pretty certain he wouldn’t. And I do imagine he understood the Covid regulations.

But I’m so sorry for your pain, and your loss.[/quote]
