Staff took them off before an MRI, and now, he fears this memory of his wife could be lost forever.

I remember when my sister was killed 25 years ago, my father asked if I could stay with her for the duration of her viewing to make sure none of her fucking dope fiend friends looted the jewelry she was wearing.
I was hoping somebody would try. I was in a foul mood anyway and needed somebody to take my frustrations out on.
I have been on many ambulance transports, mostly of older folks, who made sure they left all jewelry at home. They only take their eyeglasses and teeth.
ReplyDeleteWatching my Wife's family fight over my late Father in Law's estate and property has been the most disgusting thing I've ever seen. I told everyone I don't want anything. Nothing. No tools. no guns. Nothing. Somehow out of all of that I ended up in possession of his mint condition Remington 742 Semi Auto 30.06 that by the serial number dates to 1969. I didn't really want it and I know it has a reputation for being inaccurate and unreliable but I'm going to clean it, lube it, put a good scope on it and use some good ammo and see if I can make it into something really good for my sons (his grandsons). That will be my personal little tribute.
ReplyDeleteI got a buddy that had one. Watched him take several woodchucks between 100, and 250 yards with 30.06 accelerator rounds.
DeleteI've lost a tremendous amount of respect for the medical profession. Most of those gullible fools took the jab. Tells me they're not wise enough to do their own research. Lazy bastards. World class experts advise against the experiment, hospital employees go along with the democrats, the crowd, and the MSM. Who's gonna take care of them when they all start dropping dead? Not at all surprised there's thief among them.

ReplyDeleteWhen I buried my wife, she had on mostly just the stuff they call "costume jewelry"...looks flashy, but is relatively inexpensive. Closest thing to real jewelry was the first thing I ever bought her, a small white-gold-and-diamond pendant. The engagement ring (that I hadn't yet paid off) with the big rock? That's locked safely away at home, along with the diamond studs and all of the other stuff.
My family did the same with both grandmothers. Some day, there are going to be a lot of very puzzled archaeologists: "In the 20th Century, primitive man buried his dead with plastic trinkets, perhaps to symbolize eternal existence."
DeleteMy brother passed away last year from covid. During his admission to the ICU, his wallet with about $1500 in cash, plus his bank card, disappeared. Thankfully I was able to get the bank to shut his card down as he had a substantial amount of money in his account.
ReplyDeleteI'm old enough to remember when it was illegal to bury anyone with anything of value to prevent grave robbery.
ReplyDeleteMe too my sister stole all of my moms money and now I am dealing with that in probate.
ReplyDeleteI don't have to worry about this because my sister has already stolen everything-and Mom is still alive. Now she's calling me for things my dad gave me before he died. No chance. I also have a nice 400 mile buffer zone.
ReplyDeleteFamily...
I was fortunate, my wife passed at home and I was in attendance, I removed her jewelry, bathed, and dressed her, then called for the authorities. I was blessed to have those moments. Sad that that moment is not often afforded to many.
