I'm so sorry...Your story brought me to tears. Like Nano just wrote, know that you have just given Sampson one last greatest unselfish gift. He did tell you he was ready. I know how bad it hurts, I've been there too. In time you will be able to reminice and think about Sampson with a big smile on your face.
We are all here for you when you feel like chatting....
Godspeed sweet Sampson.
