I'm sure you've heard it before Lou, but a parent should never outlive a child. I can only imagine what you've gone through and are still going through. My brother just died at age 63 and it's feels pretty weird that he's gone and mom is still alive (sort of). At least she's not aware of it. Also seems that life is not fair to all. I used to smoke three packs of Marboros a day, drank( a lot), breathed diesel and welding fumes all day long. I've broken near every bone in my body including my neck. Yet - my brother who never got his hands dirty in his life and was a 100% egg-head academic at MIT - gets cancer and drops dead. Hard to figure?

I lost two of my best friends (husband and wife) after their 8 year old daughter died suddenly of chicken pox. Rare but it still happens! We were still close afterwards but then they decided to try for another child at ages in the late 40s. No matter what they did, they could not make it happen. Then all-of-a-sudden - 8 years ago -my young wife at age 45 gets pregnant (by me as the rumour goes). She's 12 years younger then me.
That had a awful affect on our two friends. We have not seen them nor heard from them since the day they found out my wife was pregnant. The result is our "new" 8 year old boy, Louis and the loss of two old friends. I can't ask them what the problem is and I suspect they may not even know for sure themselves.

Hey on the lighter side - have you ever heard of "Holy Smoke?" This is not a joke, it's real. I just saw an add for it. You get cremated, and get your ashes put into a rifle or shotgun shell. Then somebody can actually shoot a deer or bear with your ashes taking part. Just plain weird !

I told my wife to please bury me next to my dog who's already underground behind the house.
