One day in the future we will all be confronted with the same scenario unless we slip off the perch without seeing it coming . My father was hospitalised with pneumonia at 89 we visited him that night and said we'd catch up next day. Just after we left he climbed out of bed sat in a chair and took off the oxygen mask . He died sitting up of his own accord.

A brave man.
I just hope that I have the opportunity & internal fortitude to do the same when my time comes.
Wow mezza56 its sad to lose ones Dad but thats a great way to go on your own terms , my dad was not well on a Sunday wouldnt go to hospital my sister took him to hospital Monday and he died on Monday afternoon , what a great way to go , no lingering on for weeks or years not knowing your family , I only hope I go in a similar way , quickly ,
My Mum went 6 weeks after having a stroke not being able to do anything for herself it was terrible to watch as we had talked on many an occasion about this and I know she did not want to live like that , I were actually happy ( if thats the right word ) when the hospital rang to say she had passed away over night , mind you it was a real bitch having to tell Dad, watching your Dad break down and cry is not an easy thing to see .
