Re: What's everyone up to?

Ilana, You have my condolences on the loss of your parents.

My father died in November, but it was past time for that to
happen so I didn't feel bad about it. He was 91 and didn't know
who I was the last time I saw him before I saw him before I
moved three years ago. He couldn't even get out of bed on his
own and had to be hoisted into a chair. For an active man who
was a scientist all his working live, that was no way to live.
Having to make a trip back east to deal with my step-relatives
was more painful than his death.
