Hello,

My name is melanie, and I have a 1y son.

On June 19th my husband went to doctor for what we though was resp infection/astma.. they gave him some antibotics and a shot and sent him home..

 

He was sitting on couch making fun of me tryin to put our sons toddler bed together.. when all sudden he said he was in cold sweat within a minute he ran to bathroom to throw up.. we heard a crash, and at first though he was in such rush to get there he knock something over.. after 3 minuts i went to check on him and he was slumpped over the tub not breathing.. i screamed for my mom who was a nurse she told me to call 911 while she started cpr..

 

Paramedics came, and contiuned CPR, shocked him, etc and loaded him ambulance, me and my mom follwed them to hospital.. whole way there we saw them doing cpr..

After being at hospital 15minutes the doctor walked in (by this time his momma,uncle,etc was all here) he explained they did everything they could but were unable to bring him back... we all broke down... he was only 22..

in the following days we met with funeral home, planned funeral , had the funeral..

His service was beauitful, surrounded by family and friends.. and it was awful it took this for us all to get together.....

 

Yesterday we found out, part of the autopsy report (still waiting on toxicolgy) he died of pulmonary embolism.  The autopsy doctor said he had many clots old and new.. and that one had killed off part of one of his lungs..

I dont understand how it went un-known .. he was in er for pneoima back in april, and went doctor a week before his death.

He also said that we needed to get our son and his sister checked for any genetic conditions cause he believe it was genetic condition that caused it since he was so young and healthy.. but said it could have came from trauma

Hi Melanie,

Sorry 4 ur loss. He was so young but God knows best.

My husband of 28 yrs died almost 2 mths  after being diagnosed with CRF. He died on 12th June, 2012. Dealing with the loss of a loved one who was very close to u is very difficult. It's a pain I think will always be there. But then God knows best. Our loved one was lent to us nd God was ready to have him back. We have to pray for the strength to move on.

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
