(((bebop and Father))) - I understand and empathize with your situation(as Sabby said)) with my own mother. It's very hard seeing a parent near the end. As difficult as it was...... I don't know if anyone can relate.....but it was also a special time for my mother and me. I'm trying to find the right word to describe but I can't ATM without sounding morbid. I think most of society doesn't handle death gracefully enough. When I think of it now, I'm just content in knowing I was there through the end.

Life goes full circle and we need to be there for our loved ones and friends. I cherished every moment I had with my mother, even near the end. I'll be praying that it goes the easy, peaceful way for your dear dad.
