She’s actually the one who introduced me to Free Republic, many, many years ago.
Mom stepped away from all news sites a couple years ago, so she hasn’t been commenting here lately. She realized she was spending so much time just trying to keep up with everything that it wasn’t leaving her much time for real-life stuff.
That must’ve been a scary thing to go thru for both of you! You have my prayers that the medical people can get your mom healthy again, and that you stay strong and ready for her to come home! She did a good thing by “stepping away” for a while, sometimes it all just gets too overwhelming and we need to refocus on the things we can somewhat control (I do, anyway!). God bless, please keep us posted on her progress.
