167. Got that room

Sat Sep 19, 2020, 04:54 PM

Sep 2020

Got to the hospital at 2200 GMT and he died at 0830 the next morning and I was there every step of the way. He was also an atheist. A church of England atheist but an atheist none the less - a very English thing! LOL. I am blessed in this time of Covid to be with him at the end. Not many people are so fortunate.
