This has been a not good night. Just about 1 AM David Willis, my roommate and my friend Eppie's widower, yelled for me. He was having trouble breathing and wanted me to call 911. He made it out to the living to my bed and collasped on it. He was having problems breathing and could only talk loudly, so I was having trouble hearing the EMT on the line, but they got here fast. Just before they did, Dave's eyes rolled back and he collasped back on the bed. I could get no response from him.
The EMTs started on him as soon as they got here, first moving him to the floor. Called for more help to get him out. After working on him for a while, got him on a board then a gurnery and down the ambulance.
Just a few minutes ago, I got a call from the hospital- Woodhull- to come there and if I knew any of his relatives. He has none living I think, at least here in the city.
This does not sound good. I don't know what to do. This is Dave's apartment. It was Eppie's and Dave's till she passed. He was paying the bills. I have no money, only SNAP and Medicaid.
EDIT: I've been to Woodhull and talked to the doctor. David was declared dead at the hospital after the EMTs got him there.
