So.. I realized that I haven't posted over here in a good number of years. I'm not altogether sure how many people are still around (that aren't also on Fb), but just in case: My husband of 30+ years died this past December (2 Dec 2024, to be precise). He'd been dealing with poor health for years: circulatory problems, diabetes (that was almost entirely under control), kidney failure, etc. He had a quadruple bypass (CABG for the medical types) at the beginning of COVID that put him in a coma for several weeks & had him in the hospital for over a month, with dialysis ever since. It was his heart that finally gave out, just too much stress and sickness.
He didn't want any sort of big mourning event-thing, so we had a "dead man's party" (he was a huuuuge fan of Danny Elfman, yes) at the end of January for as many of his friends/family as could make it. Sadly, his daughter couldn't make it (unsafe driving conditions, etc.) but otherwise, I think it was exactly what he would have wanted.
