My father just died in his sleep. He had passed by the time the paramedics arrived.

They still did their best, which I am very grateful for, but they even an entire trash bag full of used instruments that were stuffed under the bed for some reason

I'm glad that I found it sooner over later but it's mildly infuriating that they just discarded their medical waste under his bed.

(NSFW some blood)

I've been taking care of him for over 5 years and it's made things a lot harder for me, seeing all of that all over.

My father had severed paranoid schizophrenia, so he was prone to breaking and losing all of my electrical devices. He kept thinking that the government was after him.

He escaped from my care last month and went missing, thinking that he was being chased. It was a state-wide search with a "silver alert" (it's like an amber alert for the old or disabled)

We found him in a coma about a week later about 100 miles from his house. He woke up rather quickly when they got him on his meds again, thankfully. So I moved him into my place 24/7

They released him into my care about two weeks ago, but I don't think his body could handle so much stress for so many years. They think him being afraid all the time just wore his heart down until his stopped today.
