Loss of my Dad

Some of you may know my dad had struggled for years with brain stem degeneration ( presents like Parkinson's )

He has been sliding progressively downhill for 7 years. The last four were bed bound. Loss of use of feet , and then hands ...and his mind kept drifting further away My brother and I opted to keep him comfy at home with help.

His fight ended peacefully Monday night. 85 years of love. ????

Wrote his obituary Thursday. Wow one page of a whole life condensed .

Just grief and some relief.

Just sharing.... With cyber friends

I get a fill in 3 weeks and this is a difficult time. I'll keep trying.

Thank you my friends. (We lost him bit by bit. Legs. Arms. Speech...)

So I am content knowing he is whole and comfortable in the beyond.

I do take solace that he loved his home and the smell of cooking and being Italian he loved to eat.

Missed and loved????
