Thank you for posting this and sharing a very difficult moment with us. DU will buoy you up. I will never forget, after I posted about my mom's death, the reaction I got from people here. Comfort, support, sympathy, solace, many many shoulders offered for me to cry on if I needed them. People here were wonderful and so kind. It meant a lot. This is a great place. Glad you're here at a time like this.

I'm so sorry, Whovian. Your mother sounds like a wonderful person, and you a good son.

So sorry, Whovian. My dad passed in Feb 2010. It is a loss that makes you evaluate life.
