Just like that. He was gone. Two nights ago we all listened to music together and smiled. Then suddenly a virus appeared. A deadly virus that put him to sleep and now he is gone.
All of us were a family with partners in extended care. We knew that life was tenuous but we expected more of a warning. Of all the people there, he was the last you'd pick to die. The virus attacked and just like that he was no longer alive.
He was such a gentle man. We will all miss his elegance. His presence. His wife's presence. She is gone, too. No longer having to be there to care for him. Our chosen family just got smaller. What do we do?
