Written as I visited my father, whom I had rarely seen during my life. He was then put in something called "comfort care" in a rehab center of Olympia, WA and his wife Cleofe was visiting him daily. She has always been like a saint for him! My father was in the Korean War where his schizophrenia manifested and he was never the same after he returned to my mother. His doctor (the few months before his death) gave him both a shingles shot and a flu vaccine at the same time. The next day he awoke unable to walk. It was downhill since then, for he had to lie in a bed barely able to eat and suffering with many problems, one of them a terrible infection called Cdef , which he got from his immune level being so low.
He passed away the first day of summer, June 21, 2019. He was 9 days short of his 89th birthday.
