Chef I'm really sorry to hear that, I wish you and your family the best in coping with his passing. My father battled colon cancer for years starting in '96, until it got to a point in '02 where he had to have the colostomy, and has had the bag for 6 years now. Cancer is just never an easy thing to deal with.

Sorry for your loss.. I know what you're feeling and where you're coming from.. Back in 2004 my father was diagnosed with esophagus cancer that spread to his stomach, liver, etc. etc... He was given three months to live, but lived a year. I was in college at the time ( a freshman ) when I got the call to come home. I sat with him for a week watching him die, and then one day he was having a noticeably worse day. He passed away early that day while my younger brother and I, along with some other family, watched him take is last few breaths. Something that I will never forget.

Again sorry for your loss and my condolescences go out to you and your family.
