Thanks, all, you're really sweet. In case you're all wondering why I'm still hanging around, it's because the memorial service won't be for another two weeks so I won't go out until next weekend so I can spend a little time with my dad afterwards. Really, I feel the worst for him because he had to witness her degeneration, whereas I (selfishly) stayed away through the worst of it.
But your words are kind. Until about a month ago, I never believed it would beat her.
