Sorry to hear about your father. My own father is also 88. Still
apparently healthy but, as your own father's case shows we can never be
sure of the future. Since he lives 2,000 miles away I don't see him
much but, since he lives alone, I do talk to him on the phone for a few
minutes every day. Your comments have made me realize that I do not
have enough pictures of him. I should remedy that soon before it is too
late.
