Life is a combination of magic and pasta.

Thank you. He's had a good long life and outlived all of his younger brothers and my mom (both of which died within a couple of weeks of each other back in October). Back in 1972-1973 his stomach stopped working and he was in the hospital for a year and evidently is in medical journals somewhere. The fact that he's made it to 87 is a hell of an achievement.

I just hope that if he's not looking to stick around anymore that he gets his wish. I don't want him to be scared thinking someone's going to come beat him up or kill him (the delusions he's been having for a few months).
