Father passed Sat.
Here is the obituary for my Father who passed Saturday, after becoming almost bed-ridden due to inability to swallow food/liquid. The flap that covers the windpipe when swallowing wouldn't close and he'd had a tube into his stomach for feeding and just grew weaker with time.
He stated that he didn't want to go back to the hospital and if anything happened, not to try and revive him; he was ready to go home. He died peacefully and is now without pain....

Re: Father passed Sat.
Sorry to hear of your loss Swampbird. Words are inadequate at a time like this, but just know others are thinking of you and your family.
That's funny you don't look Druish.

I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature’s ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. – Fred Bear

The Doctor said I should drink more whiskey. Also, I'm calling myself 'The Doctor' now.
