I am sorry for your loss. I know it is a shock with how sudden it was. When I was first diagnosed, my doctor said I'd be dead in 10 weeks without treatment and that stunned me so badly since I was not feeling like I was about to drop over anytime soon. Try to take some comfort in that treatment is far from a picnic, and unfortunately, the older a person is, the rougher it can be. It may have been a blessing that he went so fast. I saw my secondary mother slowly go downhill for a year before she finally passed, and it was wrenching to witness. I am not glad that she is gone, but I am so very glad that she is no longer suffering, and did she ever suffer horribly.
