Just had a long time friend do this on FB. Just how are you meant to reply to that.:shrug:

He has came home from hospital to be with his wife and young daughter to die.

I felt like saying can I have your toolbox, or, tell the Mrs I can do any odd jobs she needs doing, but was nice instead.:blush:

No I wouldn't because I couldn't stand the pity, as well as that doctors can get it wrong and he might live for a lot longer :shrug: Think you need to process it yourself first before you share it with the world,

I don’t think coming home to die is the right thing to do

There is a delay in that person getting the drugs they need to let them go in a painless and dignified way

A skilled GP would administer what's needed when the man is ready.

Hm, it'd be hard to do something like that without seeming to be sympathy-garnering.

It was more a saying goodbye.
