What a strange thing it is to go into peoples homes and get a glimpse of what their life is like. We got a call around 1030 for an unresponsive person. When we arrived we were met by the patients ex wife. She stated that they had been divorced for over 30 years but they still lived together. Evidently her 95 year old ex husband wasn't waking up this morning. When we went into the back bedroom we discovered that her ex had passed on sometime the night before. Since he had some rigor I chose not to work him up. We notified the Sheriffs department and told his ex wife. she wasn't surprised. As soon as the deputy showed up we turned the scene over to him. I can't imagine anyone living with an ex wife (or to be fair an ex husband) for 30 years.
