Megan sat with him and held his hand when he took his last breath.
My brother was dying of Covid and could not have any family in attendance. This was especially difficult for us because we had just lost another brother and sister in the past year. Megan was sure to keep me up-to-date throughout the night on his condition and assured me she was keeping him very comfortable with medications. She also said that she spent as much time as possible with him throughout the night stroking his forehead and talking so that he was not alone. She sat with him and held his hand when he took his last breath. Thank you so much Megan for being there when family could not. It comforts me to know that my brother was not alone in his final moments.
