but really older people will either fight death to stay alive on a holiday, having a momentary "life" moment, or they'll die right around the holiday. My grandma waiting until xmas was over. My mom was going to experience her birthday, no matter what. But what really got me was the "recovery" my dad made after he had arterial catherization. He looked and acted so good, I called work and said I'd be in the next day. Was on to be... by that next day, he was gone.
