As some of you were aware, my father had been nearly an invalid for several years, our lives revolving around him not being able to be left alone, planning vacations in shifts, not even all of us able to go out to dinner together, etc.. About six weeks ago, he ended up in hospital, from there to a rehab facility, and then 4 short days under hospice care. He died on Sunday.

I'm taking the next two days as bereavement leave from work, and as chance would have it, my vacation was already scheduled to start Monday. Good chance, I think having a week to spend with friends is probably exactly the best thing.

Oh, Ith, I am so sorry. {{{{{ }}}}} And I'm so glad you'll be with friends next week. You must be just reeling.

*so many hugs*

So sorry for your loss. My dad died suddenly, and my mother died of cancer (only six months in duration, at least), and I have never been able to decide which is worse.

Just so sorry.
