A second to last Rory update [View all]

Rory was readmitted to the hospital last night, and they've notified the family just now that he has about an hour to live.
I'm so very sad that I'm losing my best friend.
Thank you soooo much for helping me create such a wonderful good bye for him earlier this month.
I can't begin to tell you how precious that time was for both of us.
I just really need you to know that what you did gave him a small celebration of life, gave me a chance to say thank you and good bye, and gave me all those wonderful pictures to remember him by.

Rory passed away late this morning.
