I am so lucky that I still have both parents. My grandfather died over 20 years ago (26 years ago ; this month... checked my Ancestry account). A similar situation happened to my Dad...they thought my grandfather was going to make it and my Dad flew back home...he died the next day. (Nothing malicious here though; as annoying as I sometimes find my family...my family is actually decent.) He was 73 (and my Dad just turned 74....that must have felt weird)

Now my father in law? Goddess, I'm shocked the man is still alive. He seems to think that his insulin lets him eat junk.
