There’s a bloke in one of the beds opposite me that came in earlier today. He looked really rough earlier and I immediately could see he wasn’t doing so well. His mum has been up all afternoon with the curtains pulled round his bed and he has been making some pretty scary sounds.
Then she just went out into the hallway and made a quick call, five minutes later his dad and brother turned up looking really sad and shaking their heads at each other (out of eye shot of the bloke). Man it is so sad, if he’s “on his way” it is a piss-poor way to go and across the entire ward there is an air of sadness.. I started to cry a little to myself just now, hoping it’s not the way I finally go with my family looking so sad etc. Then again I want to be able to say Goodbye to them, never good when a parent outlives their kid(s) though, I’d imagine.

I feel so very, very sad at the moment

Edit:He made it through the night, had a bit of a rough one but he’s a fighter..
