I'm waiting for my dad to die, all the way across the country in Florida. His kidneys are shutting down. He may go this weekend, and he may keep on living for a couple of weeks. I had a nice visit with him last month, and we watched bald eagles at lunch every day for a week. He's happy and comfortable, and he's 96 years old and has lived a very good life. He taught me how to enjoy all the things of life, and he did a very good job of that himself.
Soon he'll be flying with those eagles.
