Jim, you are absolutely right.. that time has flown. I was so sure it was this year.

My past year was really REALLY consumed in my mom’s care and I guess most things were on the back burner during that time.

My mom remained at home, as was her FIRM desire & never got sick as such.. just gently faded away, keeping her mind, eating & drinking to the end. She knew & I knew her time was limited. She saw her “transition team”(as I call them) often & chatted with them & also with “her angel” as she called her. It was a blessing to be part of that but sad that morning when I came to her bed & instead of a nice smile & bright eyes, was greeted with a cold shell of mom.

With mother’s day tomorrow we all think of the memories of our moms.. and maybe OTHERS who did some mom’ role along the way. Mine was my Christian mom Irene.. Those of us who are mothers reflect on how our children have influenced us and our lives

Well, I know you have had a lot of changes this past year & I hope all is going well for you.
