Thank you all for the vibes!
As for me, I am okay. I thought several years ago he would be dead within a short period of time and he amazed me several times. I'm happy that the battle between his failing body and strong will to live is nearing a conclusion. I will miss him, and I'm really sorry I won't be in Ohio to be with my cousins for his burial. He was always good to me, and I did love very much.
