A normally ebullient 96-year-old, he drifted in and out of consciousness as I, also infected, sat at his bedside. His lucid moments were precious opportunities for connection and FaceTime calls with his grandchildren. One afternoon, he commanded me to get his yellow collared shirt, blue blazer, khaki pants, Sperry shoes and one of his many bow ties. I laid everything on his bed as he talked about going out to a lovely dinner with my mother, who had died 17 years earlier. Then my father closed his eyes. — Katharine Cunningham msw blog | November 25, 2021 at 12:00 am | Tags: communication, coronavirus, death, end-of-life documents, family, fashionable, Grief, grief and loss, guardian, hard conversations, parenting | Categories: Uncategorized | URL: https://wp.me/p6GW68-652 Comment    See all comments    Like Unsubscribe to no longer receive posts from Real Life of an MSW.
