Whilst it is not an exact science - they probably try to give their best educated pointer. In any event - I am sorry about your situation. |

Thought are with you bud My dad died almost 3 years ago on his 93rd birthday He had ran away with his older brother to join up by lying about his age He had a 6 week cruise to Durban, then up through Nort Africa, drove a radio truck in contact with England updating progress on fighting through Italy, after demob he drove HGV's for years, then drove excavators in a quarry. Him and mum were married 65 years, he had a stroke at 85, pulled through and only then spoke of his WW2 service. These guys were heroes. Can only hope your dads suffering is short. |

He was alone when he went, my daughter went in his room to visit at the care home and found him..... such is life |
