*hugs* I am so sorry, sweetie. I know how this feels. With my dad, it happened kind of suddenly. Then he was in a coma for about a week then we took him off life support. I don't know if either knowing that it was coming or having it happen so suddenly makes the blow easier to bear. I am just so sorry for your loss. More than I can put in words. If you need anything, feel free to pm me. *hugs*
