    @pookabera I'm so sorry. Please accept my condolences.

    I had a feeling that your dad was getting close - what you described was so close to what I just went through with Peggy. I'm glad he's at peace now. Get some rest, take some time off if you can, you deserve it, and you probably need it.

    Take comfort knowing that you took such good care of your dad.
