Matthew had celebrated his 50th birthday not long before his death. He was a cross-country trucker, at the time of death he had switched to a trucking company driver instead of owner/driver, he had load to deliver to a Wal-mart nearby when he became sick. Took time to find hospital nearby, can't just drive 18 wheeler into emergency parking. He was further delayed treatment because first hospital located was only 20 beds, they took precious time to process his insurance and run tests before transporting to big hospital nearby. He went directly to ICU, that hospital did not bother gathering insurance information, they rushed to treat him. He survived long enough to give me all this password, logins, phone info, computer info, billing info, auction company that was selling his private rig. I flew from SC to Colorado to be with him. Only had one hour to talk with him before they intubated him. After that I was allowed daily visits of 1 hour. he died n Colorado, his residence was SC and our family plot was in CT. 3 states complicated the processes, that is why his interment was months later the following spring April 11. 2022. Tragically, his great grandmother buried her 1st born at 19 WWII, his grandmother buried her 1st born age 19 from Hodgkin's,, I have now experienced their pain of the death of my first born. I love him dearly, he will never be forgotten. he is buried next to his wonderful grandmother and my ashes will one day be buried on the other side. He will be between the two women who loved him most. I sure that will give him comfort.
