70 today

My dad turned 70 today.
This is somewhat of a medical miracle.
I wonder often how he feels about the life he has now and the life he used to have.
At 70.
Did he expect to last this long?
To my fellow VHLers someone getting to 70 is important, is an achievement and something we think gives us hope. But I know how hard everyday must be, how difficult the routine and not just for him, but all of us.

Especially my mum.
