today, 3-31-11 my dad died at about 4:20 am, he was fine, then seems to have the hiccups then went limp in his chair and stopped breathing, we tried to revive him, as did the ambulance and the hospital, but sadly he was confirmed dead within the hour, he leaves behind my mum, me, three brothers of mine, a little sister, his one remaining brother and his mother, my grandmum. for the next few days im quite sure im going to be extreamly depressed and hope that people can help me thru this horrid time.

for those who wish to know, what we think it was is a embolism or stroke from a bloodclot in his main thoratic vein that he was on blood thinners for the past 3 months and finaly taken off. what is most depressing is he beat a heart attack, stroke, and just this past summer he beat throat cancer and had all the tubes fully out last month with the wounds fully healed. he has been complaining somewhat about some difficulty breathing but was seeing his doctor about the small ammount of scar tissue in his throat.
