My FIL passed last night, at 97.

He had been taken to a rehab from the hospital to try to regain some strength. Of course the rehab has a 14 day quarantine.. so as best we can tell he was pretty much isolated in his room since arrival, eating his meals in his bed, etc. He was a bit hard to understand due to shortness of breath. Had been having arm pain (they did Xrays, not broken, but swollen) I spoke to him 2 days ago, he sounded pretty confused, but how much was his hearing? My hubs and I were talking last night before bed.. I was planning to call there Sat when I was off work and my hubs (Joint POA) was available, to try to get some answers. My BIL, who he lived with also told my hubs he was having trouble getting any real information from the rehab. I had a feeling he was not bouncing back from this.. So last night at 1.30 am we got the call from BIL. Dad had called him earlier, said he felt bad and was having trouble breathing. BIL called the rehab,, they called back and said his sat was 95 and "he felt better". At 12,30 they called to say he passed. So at 1.30 I didn;t make the phone in time, but rushed down to the message.. then had to go wake up hubs and have him call his brother. What a terrible night.. I know you all understand. I waited until this am to call my DD. So today in hindsight I realize he had classic blood clot symptoms.. And like another poster here recently I have to wonder if his age factored in to the not diagnosing a blood clot, and as he was 97.. not as urgent as a younger resident? Water under the bridge I suppose. He passed on the same day his wife did 2 years ago, we take comfort in that, and that he is no longer in pain. Funeral planned, as best it can be in the new COVID world.. some family issues with that, but you have all heard my dysfuntional family stories before.. We are just letting play out,, its for Dad not us. Hubs did request the military taps and flag at the cemetary and they are happy to do that. Just keep us in your thoughts and prayers
