Numerous times he said that he was ready to die, but the nursing home decided to keep him alive, all the while he was suffering. He wanted an end to the pain and they did not give it to him. Now, I don’t dislike the nurses for doing their job, but I think that if he was ready to go, let him. He has since passed on, and times have been tough on my grandmother, there anniversary is coming up would have been 63 years of marriage in June, but we are all relived at the fact that he has no more pain, we all miss him, but we will get
Once I read Susan Wolf’s writing about her father’s last days and the choices they had to make with him, I do completely agree that physician assisted suicide was the correct choice for their situation. Wolf was passionate, considerate, and mindful about her decision for her father and I know it could not have been an easy choice for her, but ultimately was the best choice. Wolf allowed me some insight on what I might one day have to go through and has truly opened my eyes to hard choices surrounding

About six years ago my uncle had broken his back. Yes, it was scary, but we all thought he was going to be okay because it wasn’t too serious. But we were all wrong when he got his surgery and nothing had happened. And that was the beginning of my uncle’s depressing life. He has had about ten surgeries since then and every time something has gone, for example his last surgery they put a shocker in his back.
Although, researchers say that no one ever passes away from cancer it is the complications that the body goes thru with cancer taking over. It could be a combination of things, pneumonia, infection or blood pressure that causes the body to start shutting down. For my father, his body started to fill up with fluid, starting in his lower extremities
To watch anyone let along your father go this all this pain is enough to make anyone want the suffering to be over. Yet, this was only the beginning and she may have thought that it could not get any worse than that. Cancer is a serious illness that is treated with chemotherapy, pills, or even surgery or a combination of all three. This was really a sad but touching story to read. I read it three times to make sure that I understood what was going on.
Austin was bullied throughout most of his childhood and into his highschool years. He used that anger towards his bullies and put it into what he loved, music. He also would go and volunteer at nursing homes, trying to be better than those who stooped so low to harm him. When Austin was seventeen years old his mother passed away from a rare genetic disorder. He was at work when he got the call that she was in the hospital but it was too late.
For example, on page 237 in the textbook, it says: “It had always been hard for them to talk for more than a minute or two before his father got offended at something Luis said, or at his sarcastic tone. He was always doing something wrong.” Eventually, though, he realizes that his father does care a lot about his dead wife, and that he never got over her death. What helps Luis realize this was his falling in love with Naomi. A sentence from the story supports Luis’ realization: “Luis worked and worked, beginning to understand a little why his father kept busy all the time.” The main theme for this story is simple: love can change people. In the second story, “The Bass, the River, and Sheila Mant,” the main character, the narrator, is in love with a girl, who isn’t at all like him.
One of the most difficult things that Tom had to go through was his father's Cancer diagnosis. Tom once told Noisecreep, “My dad has had a rare form of leukemia since I was in about the seventh grade...”(“Delonge on Cancer” 7). This was something that caused a lot of unrest in Tom's childhood and has inspired him to help raise money for Cancer. Along with his father's Cancer diagnosis, Tom overcame another struggle when his parents divorced during his senior year. He has shown the affects of divorce on kids through many lyrics in various songs of his.
For a long time 5 years to be exact I despite my father for not stepping up supporting his children like a father should. I remember saying “How can any good man give up on his children”. Before I had so much hatred in my heart negative feelings against my father. But during his passing I started to regret a lot of things I said and even felt the worse, he became the sorrier I was but, words couldn’t express the way I felt during that time all I wanted was to let my father know I was sorry for my actions and go home in peace knowing his daughter loved, and forgiven him. Above all, our relationship and his battle with cancer inspired and influenced me to become a better person.
