I found an old diary recently for the year my Dad died (I was 18) and there are multiple entries in the months before his death (massive heart attack) for visits to the doctor and even, a few days before his death, a specialist - who 'found nothing wrong'. Two members of my family have recently been in coronary units - thankfully with positive outcomes - and I was impressed by the care they received and the huge amount of attention that is now given to prevention of heart disease, and the wealth of information available. I'm sure things would have been different for Dad these days :-( Some things do change for the better. |

Chris, what a traumatic time for you and your brother and your poor Mum must have been devastated not to have been with your Dad at the end. However to gently slip away as he did must have been a comfort as the years go on. |

There we were, brother 16 and me just 21 and Mum was out shopping. Had never seen death before and he had slipped away in sleep. Knew he was not well but not that ill. |
