Had he lived, Dad would have been 88 yrs. old today. Dad was diagnosed at age 61 with acute multiple myeloma. Fortunately, he responded well to treatment, and lived another 12 years with good quality of life. While he was in remission, we made a trip to Great Britain to see where he was stationed during WWII. It was a great time together, and I’m so grateful we were able to go. He would be so proud of so many things! Proud of me, proud of his family, proud of our country and all the advances in technology intended for good in the world. He was always keen on supporting cancer research and would be so amazed at the advances made in blood cancer treatment and research in the years since his death. We all miss him…he would be saying “Cheers!” to toast another day on this earth, with a glass of milk! Help me celebrate Dad’s life with a contribution to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society!
