Good Morning Deb. Hi. So nice to see you. Thank you. I hope all is well with you. Your review and commentary are wonderful and most generous. Truly. My dad was a trooper who was a dialysis patient for four years three days a week and yes he needed help. Have a wonderful morning and weekend. Blessings always (smile)

This is a precious memory, Lisa! At first 3am seemed too early for morning coffee, but on reading your comments below I quickly understood. You were there when your father needed you most. I'm sorry for your loss. My father used to get up at ca 4.30 am every morning and have his first of several daily coffees. Thank you for sharing. Best regards, my friend // paul

Good Morning Daniel. Hi. What a great way to start the day. Thank you Thank you. This is actually about me and my dad at 3am because he was a dialysis patient three times a week for 4 years and he needed help in the morning and he had the first session of 5am - he was on the machine for 3 1/2 hours... I miss those special times and moments. Your review is meaningful and smiles to your comments. Coffee is always ready (smile) Have a wonderful morning and weekend. Blessings always and I do not take your continued visits or commentary for granted. Truly (another smile)

Hi Andrea. Thank you very much. Yes 3am is early but my dad was a dialysis patient three days a week for the last four years of his life and I helped him before and after his session so yes we were up extremely early because he had the first session in the beginning it was 5am and then it switched to 6am and he was on the machine for 3 and a half hours

You took care of your father very well. Deserves a win. Hugs.

Hi Lisa, You penned such a touching and heartfelt tribute to your dad. Our loved ones are gone physically, but their memory lives on in our hearts. My dad has been gone for almost 20 years. It was a blessing that you had special moments with your dad. I'm sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and your family. PS, Are you a mother? If so Happy Belated Mother's Day-Alexis
