I will share a prayer for Dulcie tonight. 96 is a long life. My mom is 93, still living independently. But I appreciate just how old that is.
When Dulcie was 93 she was still living in her own home and driving from OKC down to West Texas or up north to MO in her little Honda.
Then she broke a femur....and 6 months later, while out for donuts, broke the other leg right above the knee. That ended most of her independence. She was living in a assisted living facility here and got around beautifully in her wheel chair, but then stuff started happening and now she’s bed-bound. I hope your mom can stay independent for as long as possible!
