I'm sorry for your loss, SB. *Offers hugs and a kiss on the cheek*
93. What a glorious age to make it too. The things he's done and seen. Veterans do that for one another. They were Brothers-In-Arms, no matter the age. What that nurse did, I see a lot of in varying forms. It was a beautiful show of heartfelt respect. My Inbox is always open if you need a shoulder, doll.

I need to get back to sleep, up in two hours.

As someone who had a grandfather who was also in WWII (D-day of all places), you have my condolences. Take solace that he's at peace. To quote a poem.
"And When he gets to heaven,
To Saint Peter he will tell;
One more soldier reporting, sir.
I've served my time in Hell!" |

He sounds like a beautiful man. I'm sorry for your loss. 
You have my thoughts, and a hug. 
*Hugs muchly.*

Today is not a good day for me to be breathing around other humans.

Now I wish Daddy really could tie my hands together because I'm going to have one helluva night trying not to rip this shit off. Sleep isn't going to be easy either and I have to get up early again to travel out of town.
Mantra for today?
It's only 24 hours. You can do this.
