Thanks alot
You'd be suprised how empty the hospice was, my granddad was the only patient in there that had family constantly visiting him. I rarely saw the other patients families in the 2 or 3 weeks he was in there.
Yeah I couldnt have lived with myself If I hadnt have made the effort. I'm not as bad now as I would have been if he'd have just gone without being able to say goodbye. I got alot of excellent advice from 92b and from my family. Advice that told me to go and see him as much as possible.
He was a VERY nice bloke, he had alot of people who looked up to him, including his family and members of his community. He was a valued member of the church he visited, and worked at his business upto the days he went into hospital.
If anyone deserved to go to heaven it was him!
