My Dad

My mother passed six years ago at the grand old age of 94.

She had progressive Vascular Dementia,her time had come, and she passed peacefully in her own home.

Our family are so relieved that she passed before the indignaties of the Covid lock down restrictions, which would've been a trauma for all.

Sometimes when the time has come, its a relief for everyone.

Condolences.
 
Extremely sorry for your loss Ric.

My Dad passed away from Alzheimer's in 2008. It was awful. My once extremely intelligent, PHd mathematician father degenerated very quickly into a shell of his former self - basically at the level of a 5-year-old child and then even worse.

For me, dementia/Alzheimer's is the worst disease - even if painless - because it robs its victims from the very essence of what they are.
 
Really sorry to hear that Ric. Your dad obviously had very good taste in music, film and, of course, football :). What a great role model for you growing up.

All the best at this difficult time.
