Thanks, Nammu. And yes, I also think there's something a bit extra sad when you lose someone way before the usual. Though I am very much grieving the loss of my dad, he was 80, so had a mostly long life. My brother was only 57. When my mom passed she was only 61. It was just flat out unfair that they lost their lives so prematurely. It was only a few months ago I remember telling my brother how unfair it was that he had to struggle with such a terrible terrible illness.
