I request this release to be as soon as possible as my father is terminally ill and I wish to visit him one last time.

It's a long and complicated story that goes back 10 years and needs careful explaining.

Maybe I'll kiss the ground, I don't know.

He appeared much weaker, physically and mentally, he is having a very difficult time and he appears very tired.

He has not been mistreated, except by not having adequate medical care.
