138. I'm so sorry...
I am sure your father was fighting to control the plane. He probably thought
he would walk away from it. I have a friend who was in a bad accident and
almost died. I asked him if he was scared and if he knew he would die. He
said, "I was embarrassed. I thought I'd crash and make a fool out of myself.
When you're in trouble, all you do is think about how to survive. It wasn't
scary."

I hope that provides some comfort. His remarks always stuck with me.

You mentioned that you were estranged from your father. However, you made
phone calls and I'm sure they meant a lot to your father, and you'll always
have warm memories when you see avocados.

Peace and light to you during this painful time.

:hugs:
