Unfortunately, I've lost both my parents already. My dad passed away in 1990 from a massive heart attack (at home) and then my mom succumbed to a years-long battle with a rare form of cancer in November 2004. At the time of their deaths, my dad was 53, my mom was 63. I never expected to be without them so young. I miss them dearly.

I am blessed, both of my parents are still living, as are one set of my grandparents and a great-grandmother.

both of my parents are still alive though my father is recovering from a mild stroke. He is still under medication and therapy. But he can now walk and move around the house but his speech is affected. He can talk but not that clear. My mother is still working.
