You have been in my thoughts almost constantly Robin. The care you gave and the love that you showed your Dad is a Testament to your true character...and a clear demonstration of your inner-strength. Please know that I'm always here if you need an ear to listen, a shoulder to rest on, arms for a hug or a friend for anything.
