Hindsight is a perfect science. You did what you thought was right at the time with regards to contacting his sister's family. Please don't beat yourself up about it. Even if he doesn't agree, your Dad will know you were only doing it from a place of love.
My thoughts are with you.

Thank you so much for your supportive words and encouragement.
I did feel I was doing the right thing by contacting his sister's kids. They likely told his sister that he is sick, which is what my father did not want. There's nothing I can do about it now, but yeah, I did think it was OK when I did that. Most importantly, he doesn't want her coming to the funeral, and that will be taken care of, so that's good.
And yes, it is very scary watching him having trouble breathing. He said it's like being pushed under the water by someone. The morphine helps with that tremendously, and the anti-anxiety medication.
