re_alisma when he was ready to go, he was ready and didn't linger. But the last few days were distressing for him, you could tell. The last breath was pure shock through my system. But it was still good to be there for him.... I'm still here for him, if the need were to pop up again, in the ethers, or among angels, ancestors, founding fathers, etc. Duty sometimes abounds, but I'm not sayin' I would be a part of every process there ever was in existence, forever. The Catholic stuff got all screwed up although I did enjoy the zillion references to the desire and assurance of peace and its place in the realm of the possible. I'm going to miss him. 110814

re_alisma thanks... it was more than a year and a half of guaranteed terminality and radiation, chemo, and weakness, which was a burden, but that doesn't size up to the 36 years that i knew and loved him, ill or not. 110815
