Thank you Eidelweiss...I read this years ago and thought it was special but now as my own age advances and I have witnessed forst hand my parents and husband's parents suffer the humiliations of old age it means so much more...I'm going to print this out and put it on my fridge as a reminder of just how awesome the human spirit is until the very end....

Humlan...my heart is aching after reading your post...I feel so badly for your kids Dad....Life just isn't fair ...God bless you both!
