I'm really glad I got to see him. Even from up in the stands in a university basketball court I could see his charisma glowing. And I'm glad he's no longer suffering through this last ordeal.
My father died 7 years ago yesterday after a 2 month battle in the hospital after a failed surgery, and today would have been his 86th birthday, so I'm much with the father thoughts, too.
I'm sorry. Somehow I missed seeing this until just now. For my dad, it is 19 years this Dec 1. It gets better but certainly the grief never goes away. Nor should it. Any parent worthy of the word is worth missing forever. *hugs* back.
