My mother just turned 80 but i’m not worried as they all do an easy 95 on that side of the family. I live 500 miles from my mother but make sure I talk to her at least 2/3 times a week.
Needless to say my mother is as good as it gets!
My mother had lupus and we lost her when she was 52. She taught us how to fish, play ball and just fun things. She died right after my son was born. I feel cheated.
My Mom, who was the most beautiful, vivacious lady I’ve ever seen or experienced, died in 2011 because a doctor mis-medicated her for a rather small incidence of tachycardia. She was 88 years old, and I miss her dearly every day. It has soured me on the whole medical profession and those people who tell us they are doing something for our own good. I’m sorry to sound so bitter, but FR is the only resource I have to express myself.
