Philip Ray Brown passed peacefully away in his home at 8:30 on Sunday morning, surrounded by his family. We are grateful to have been blessed with such an incredible father in our lives. We are grateful that he was able to pass so quickly and are happy that is finally reunited with our mother - Netta.

If anyone makes a comment on this blog or emails us - we are reading them to Dad and really feel as though he can hear and understand them. We have loved reading them to him. We feel like they have been a huge comfort to him and to us - so please keep them coming.

Dad took a turn for the worse yesterday. He went into a diabetic coma with seizures after spending the night throwing up and being too tired to drink/eat. His blood sugar, oxygen level, and blood pressure are all scary low today.

Since he has decided to no longer treat the cancer, his body is shutting down. He wants to die soon, peacfully and painlessly. All we can do is offer him pain medication and cold water until his body shuts down. He can't respond to us, but he can hear us. He is sleeping deeply.

I'll keep you posted if anything changes good/bad.

Please pray for Dad. That he will pass away soon without much pain and be with Mom again.

Thank you.
