I appreciated reading this as it has helped and brought me a lot of comfort and I hope other members of my family as well as we just lost my sister to t cell lymphoma on Oct 6th,2009. She too was a selfless person.

We do have peace knowing that she did not suffer and that she died peacefully. Thank you for posting this as I was searching for peace of mind and comfort. I am in awe of the similarities between her and your dad. Some things that the dr's could not explain about her and her condition you have explained in terms of your dad and clarified the issues in terms of my sister, for me. Thank You.

Keep living the way your parents did before you as it is the legacy that they left you to carry on. They are such a wonderful part of who you are today. Respectfully, DMason
