re: Ever had to watch someone die?

I've lost a mom, dad, and sister to cancer, so I've had too much experience in that type of death. My most sincere condolences.Just be strong & enjoy the moments you do have with him. But I saw way too many deaths in Nam, and there is a huge difference when the light goes off so fast in the eyes of a fellow 19 yr old soldier. One minute he's alive, in a matter of seconds, he goes down & the lights go off in the blink of an eye. And ignore those Hollywood/John Wayne cowboy type deaths. The real thing is horrible, regardless of how it occurs.
