It’s been a week since B died. I miss him every minute.
I’m very thankful for all the work my daughter did to keep up with the meds, etc. At the end, it was quite intense of very 2 hours, so she did a great job.
I’m thankful to the hospice nurses as they were right on everything and so quick. When we needed the hospital bed, it was here in 3 hours and set up.
I’m thankful for the outpouring of love from his friends/coworkers on Facebook. He was much loved by his peers. There have been such nice comments about Barclay.
I’m thankful we are not under that heat dome like back east. Our temperatures are going up this next week, but still in the low 90s. So not too bad. We’ve had the coolers running, but that’s expected.
I’ve worked through some paperwork about B, but not all. I have to go get the physical copy of the death certificate, and I’ll do that next week. I’ve cleared off some things from his desk, but there’s still more to do. I also packed up some clothes for Goodwill, but there’s more to do there as well. I haven’t turned off his phone yet and will do that next week. That’s a hard one.
I got a nice phone call from Dr. Singhal about B and how sorry she was about it all. She is an extraordinary oncologist, and I know she did all she could. I did ask her to contact his BMB team from before when he had MDS, and she said she would. I’m sure they would want to know.
Well, that’s all the updates for now. Although, in other news, the tragedy on Lake Tahoe was just awful. We’ve seen squalls come out of nowhere, and those boaters shouldn’t have been out on the lake. Sad. And it was a birthday cruise for his mom. What a tragedy.
