Who tried to talk you into hospice? The doctors?

Comfort Care is an euphemism for o er dosing with pain killers.

Overdosing?

Really?

I'll bet the patient, the family, the caregivers, and the doctors, would vehemently disagree with you.

Death is ironically, a part of life. I am always touched when I see pictures of elderly who have passed that show when they were young and full of life. There is a nice one of Ms. Bush, she was pretty. Aren’t we glad death was slain at the cross? no hope without it. RIP Ms. Bush.

Not familiar with Comfort Care, but hospice was a joke with both of my parents.

I rode my mountain bike past the daughter’s mausoleum many times when I lived in College Station.

It was in a hidden and out of the way spot on campus.

Friends of mine are big into theatre and took in a lot of shows in Houston’s theatre district. At one show near the end of the millennia, Mrs. Friend spotted Mrs. Bush in the lobby. Now Mrs. Friend is a force of nature; quite brash. She went right up to Mrs. Bush and talked with her. Mr. Bush also gave her some time. The way the tale is told, I got the impression this kind of thing was not all that unusual for the Bush’s.

I will wager that it won’t be long before George H W follows suit. They were married an incredible 73 years. I know he’s also in failing health and it will be hard for him to be without her.

I never gave it a thought what COPD means, thanks.

All I know that they have to use an inhaler. My husband has it too and he use 3 different inhalers. One he uses in the morning and evening, the other one in the afternoon and the third one on occasion.

Unrelated but also a tragic death is that Comedian and Magician Harry Anderson was found dead this past evening at 65 in his North Carolina home.

While I will agree that recent Democrat First Ladies left something to be desired, it would be wrong to ignore what a classy lady Rosalynn Carter was. Did not care for Jimmy being a conservative and in the Corps at the time. But Mrs. Carter was very much a Southern Lady and she was respected even by conservatives. She and Mrs. Bush were cast from the same mold I think.

The tell all book about Rosalynn said she was more in control of the White house than we knew. Still, she managed her public image with dignity and like you said, as a traditional southern lady.

RIP Barbara Bush. A classy lady....

I am not a fan of the the Carter Presidency, although I believe he is honest in his beliefs no matter how off the wall they were. But compared to the Hillary Clinton and the Michelle Obama, Rosalyn Carter was an excellent First Lady. I think Mrs. Trump is doing a good job despite constantly under attack. This begs a question that has bothered me as of late. If the RINOS and the Democrats take down Trump do they really think they can put the genie back in the bottle. Do they really think after bashing President Trump's wife and children that we will just forget and hold hands and sing songs. We did not like Carter but we never attacked his family, can we really go back from here?
