It just caught me off guard when I saw that. I think the pictures made me somewhat uncomfortable, maybe because my dad (he's in Germany) developed dementia and he was moved to a care facility earlier this year, and we haven't been on speaking terms for 25 years, and now it's too late.
I'm so sorry to hear about your Da, Germany is pretty far away. Given his dementia, the trip and visit might be weirder than the estrangement in the end if you chose to go. My mother is pretty old and only 20 mins. away. I haven't spoken to her in years. I will certainly never see her again before she passes and that's my choice. It's for the best in some cases. Definately in my case 😻
