Just to say that my Father-In-Law (Donald Duck on this thread) passed away peacefully 13 days ago.

Must pay tribute to his GP (who correctly diagnosed the problem) and later at the Hospital the staff who were on duty on that night shift for their sensitivity, help, and professionalism.

Sorry to hear of your sad news Stan.
My thougths with you and your family.

Deepest sympathy Stan, to you and yours, may your Dad rest in peace.

Stan, times like this are never very good, it brings home what really is important in our lives. It must be of some comfort to know your father-in-law passed away peacefully, and that the medical profession acted as we would expect. Sympathy to you and your family.
