Rough anniversaries, pt. 2

Right about now 4 years ago, early afternoon of the 20th, I was telling my ex that the docs were coming over to say they'd exhausted all options for saving her, she was dying, and they wanted to move her to a hospice. I'd had to wait until they were suctioning her throat, that way her mother was out of the room.

Her eyes went big and round. Within a few seconds a doc blew into the room, saying that he sees we're talking about it so it should come as no surprise, he wants her to sign a do not revive order and move to a hospice.

Suppose I should have wrung his neck but I was a bit busy just then. And she was dead within 36 hours.

Got a memorial page for her. Check out the wedding pics if you want to see what Wayne LaPierre looked like 25 years ago with an Austin Powers type haircut.
