Kevin,

Thank you so much for allowing me to share this experience with you. I am so sorry that you have lost your dad. No matter how awful the illness and how much better off the loved one is, you still miss them. I still feel the pain of losing my mother last year, though I would not want her back in the horrible torture she was experiencing.

Your mother needs you right now. She is blessed to have you.

You continue to be in my heart and prayers,


Bonnie
