One morning, I received a call at work from my wife, telling me my father had passed away in the night. Many of us lived in the same house, including my mom, who was my dad’s main caregiver. But on that day, I had left for work before anyone else was awake. As I drove away that morning, I didn’t know my dad was already gone.
