davjohns 1 #62 January 8, 2010 Thoughts with you and your family.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

warpedskydiver 0 #67 January 8, 2010 QuoteJim passed away this morning (7 Jan) after suffering another heart attack while hospitalized for pneumonia. I love you, bro - rest easy. I am sorry Mike, none of us is going to get out of here alive. None of us can take for granted that getting sick or having health problems is nothing to worry about. You certainly have had your fair share of grief when it comes to family dying before old age takes them away. I hope you can just remember when he was young and healthy and was happy. Other than that, at least he did not wind up a veggie on a ventilator, that is like going to hell. There is nothing you can do but be there for the rest of the family and console them, I guess it is your job to be the eldest now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mnealtx 0 #69 January 9, 2010 Thanks, everybody. It's like his wife said - "By rights, he should have died two years ago (the original incident I posted), so at least we had two more years with him than we would have." I'm trying to take what comfort I can from that.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
