This whole topic of health care takeover is all too real to me at the moment. I lost my father today; he would have turned 77 next Wednesday. He had been in failing health in an assisted living facility for some time. He died peacefully and without pain. For those who have not lost loved ones, it is a massive ordeal that requires hundreds of both large and small decisions. I thought today that it was hard enough making decisions and ministering to him as a family and medical community. It would have been horrible to have had the government’s heavy hand in the mix. WE knew what was best for Dad. He died on God’s timetable, surrounded by loving family until the final breath.
Very sorry to hear about your father....
My thoughts are with you.........
“He died on God’s timetable,”
So sorry. It’s interesting that the perspective of “God’s timetable” for end-of-life issues really hasn’t been brought up by either side of the healthcare issue. If it has, I haven’t heard it.
