Hi @fwentz. I am so sorry to hear about your sister. Losing a loved one carries so much pain and sorrow.

Are you able to be with her at all?

Thank you, Amanda, for your kind words. No, we live far apart and at age 81 I'm reluctant to travel there because of COVID. Fortunately though her children live nearby. She was living in a nursing home where they were not able to visit her. She became quite ill and was taken to the hospital. When it became clear she needed hospice care, my niece was able to move her to her place where the children are able to be with her 24/7 by trading shifts. I'm grateful for that. I'm also glad that I was able to travel cross country last September and had a good visit with her and my niece.

And my good thoughts go to @rosez and her husband in their grief.
