Te hace sentir mucho mejor tener a alguien con quien hablar que sabe lo que est\u00e1 pasando\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>El padre de Rick, Robert, hab\u00eda trabajado durante 50 a\u00f1os como distribuidor de licores y, una vez jubilado, vivi\u00f3 primero en Cape Cod y luego en Dartmouth. Rick dice que a su padre le gustaba jugar al golf, \"charlar\" y conocer a los m\u00fasicos que se reun\u00edan en la casa de Rick en Westport. \u00c9l y su mujer, Diane, invitan a artistas locales a tocar en el s\u00f3tano de su casa, terminado como un peque\u00f1o pub irland\u00e9s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Era su mayor fan\", dijo Rick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pero en los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os, Robert hab\u00eda sufrido una insuficiencia renal, y dependi\u00f3 de la di\u00e1lisis durante dos a\u00f1os antes de \"chocar contra un muro\" alrededor de la Navidad de 2023, dijo Rick. Se volvi\u00f3 ap\u00e1tico, com\u00eda poco y apenas hablaba. En marzo de 2024, se cay\u00f3 durante una sesi\u00f3n de di\u00e1lisis y fue trasladado en ambulancia a la UCI del St.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Para entonces, tanto el pron\u00f3stico como la calidad de vida de Robert eran malos. Su mujer, Carol, y sus hijos, Rick y David, tomaron juntos la dif\u00edcil decisi\u00f3n de retirar a Robert de la di\u00e1lisis. Durante las largas estancias en la UCI, Samantha hizo que trajeran caf\u00e9 y galletas a la familia. Y organiz\u00f3 un goteo de morfina para que Robert estuviera m\u00e1s c\u00f3modo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rick le dio su n\u00famero a Samantha para que le avisara de cualquier cambio en el estado de su padre. Se asegur\u00f3 de que otras enfermeras de guardia tambi\u00e9n tuvieran su n\u00famero y, a la 1:30 de la madrugada del 22 de marzo, Rick recibi\u00f3 la llamada de que su padre hab\u00eda muerto, casi exactamente una semana despu\u00e9s de ingresar en St. Luke's.
