Prayers for my father - update

[NegrilIrene]

It is with great sadness, my father passed away this morning. I can't believe that I just wrote that, I am still in shock. He was 88 years old. I was not able to get to the care home this morning in time which is very upsetting. He was highly intelligent, graduated from UC Berkeley with honors. The most gentle, kind, generous person you would ever meet. I never saw him get mad. He was also of Russian heritage and fluent in the language, he loved to sing russian songs and crack corny jokes.

Alzheimer's dementia is inhumane and horrible, I am very sad and angry. I pray that one day they can find a cure and no one else has to go through this.

Thank you so much for the thoughts and prayers.
