that's what my mom died of. from what they told us, it was pretty much instant, and she did not suffer. of all the ways to go, it's not a bad one, at least for the person going (speaking from experience, having lost my dad to a long illness). but for the people left behind? staggering.
the word "disorienting" strikes a chord. with a sudden passing of a loved one, you feel like you lose your place in the world. "disorienting" is such an apt way to describe that awful feeling.
It's truly scary how fast and aortic dissection or ruptured aortic aneurysm can take someone. I will never forget the person that was transported to my hospital for emergency surgery and was MOMENTS away from being taken to the OR when it blew and they passed away. At least their family was there and had those few moments before going back & the person didn't suffer, but it's so awful. No time to mentally & emotionally prepare.
thank you bb, and i feel the same way. it's comforting, because my dad was more stoic, and he fought, but my mom was an anxious person and she hated hospitals, so in a way this was the best way for her to go.
Thanks. It's bringing me back to memories of day she died even though it's nearly been 6 years so I'm gonna peace out of here but I'm glad he wasn't alone.
