My great grandpa passed away this afternoon at 2:45. He had a brain stem stroke on Tuesday afternoon. The brain stem just continued to swell until he could no longer breathe. He wasn't being responsive. Couldn't move his body.
We said a prayer with the minister and shortly after that, I watched him take his last breath. It was amazing though.. He opened his eyes. He didn't blink. He just opened his eyes wider and wider and was moving them around like he was staring at people he hadn't seen in years. I think thaty was the point where his soul had lifted and he was just a body. We circled around him in the hospital room and told him it was okay to let go.. and to stop fighting it. It was his time to go. I'm glad I was able to be with him for his last few hours. I love him so much. He was so giving and so appreciative and such an amazing person.
I don't know what is going to happen with my great grandma though. She is so upset. They got married when he was 21 and she was 19. He passed away at 92 years old. They were so perfect together.
"May angels lead you in."
