BOOP = Bronchiolitis Obliterans with Organizing Pneumonia.
Thoughts with you, JD. I've never really had to deal with death -- my grandparents died when I was fairly young, save for a grandmother, but we knew that was coming. I live in fear of the day when my parents go. Don't know how I'm going to take that. I do know, that they're getting up there in age, so I tell them I love them every chance I get. Every phone call, every visit, every e-mail and letter, I always make a point of telling them. Even without that, they know.
Just like you're mom knows, JD.
