Default The Call

I just got the call today that my father passed away.
Now busy trying to get flights.
I kept plenty of BA air miles for just such an occasion. Phoned them and explained the situation. They were very helpful they could get me to the UK but cannot get me back again.
So it is back to paying cash as at least the service is being delayed so I do not have to get a flight till next Friday.

Thank you,

In many ways it is a blessing as even with the excellent nursing at the care home his quality of life was low due loss of mobility and advanced cardiovascular dementia.
Now he is in a better place.
