Death Smiles at Us All. All a Man Can Do is Smile Back

It's looking like dad's time on this planet is coming to a close. He hasn't woken up since he fell asleep on Saturday night. Hospice is here, and we're all making sure he's as comfortable as can be. We're making arrangements to have his brain donated to NICHD, which is what he wanted. Otherwise, we're just waiting for the inevitable. But, as Captain Kirk said:

How we deal with death is at least as important as how we deal with life, wouldn't you say?

Post title is a quote from "Gladiator", one of dad's favorite movies.
