Wife lost her brother last night.
« on: December 22, 2018, 06:58:05 AM »
Brother-in-law passed away last night.  He lived in Colorado and was a Vietnam era veteran suffering from his worst fear, Dementia/Alzheimer's disease.  The last several months he had been cared for in a Assisted Living Facility.  We were humbled when told two other resident veterans took it upon themselves to stand guard at his door for about 2 hours until the funeral home arrived to take his body.

We both have lost family members to this horrible disease and have others currently living with it. 

RIP Dave Hansen

Sorry for your loss.

Praying for your family.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

I'm sorry you lost your brother-in-law, David. RIP Dave Hansen. It's a horrible disease.

Praying for your family Ghost Hunter.
Only 2 defining forces sacrificed themselves for you:
The American Soldier and Jesus Christ. One died for your freedom, the other for your soul.

My rock,
He trains my hands for war and my fingers for battle.

Prayers. Take comfort in knowing his disease is now gone and he's in a better place.
