@yotta - I am not sure that you know that this is my child - and I have only today found your wonderful tributes. I am in tears - again - will never 'get over' this untimely death - but was prepared - had visited exactly 2 years prior, when it was pretty obvious that important treatment schedules had been missed by her doctors - but were attempted again, to no avail. - I left for the airport after her birthday early one morning without waking her - and that's the last time I was physically close to my child. Her husband had to see her suffer to the end, and almost to the end she worked on some project, the last one being a song cycle with her daughter as singer, composed by her, which is beautiful but so sad, I only listened once, but am ready now. She was an amazing gift which to this day I cannot conceive how I deserved her, but am grateful for her life . . . . You are a kind man! I will probably have this response deleted after a short wait over the weekend, as I don't wish my anonymity breached. XXX Tau
