Tonight at 12:10, it will 15 years that I watched my mother take her last breath in the hospital from lung cancer. (I used to throw away her cigarettes and it was cold comfort that she conceded I was correct many years later.)

I hope your uncle's transition and journey are peaceful.

My condolences.
