Welcome back codeblue, glad you got to spend the time with your Dad. My parents are in a facility with independent living as well as assisted and nursing care. It is a blessing knowing help is there if they need it while I travel for work. I am sure they will take great care of your Dad but that the time with you was the best thing that could happen for him. I saw your Father's Day post in the other thread, my sympathies, and I know Jacob is still loved and always will be. As a Dad my worst fear is losing a child but I know the real thing must be many times worse than I think it would be.
