Re: It's great to see you!

Isn't it a fine piece? Yes, when you read it you experience it.

Twice a gran! You must have your hands full, your heart full, your time full. :)

My mom is very frail and mostly unhappy, but happy when I come. She would love me to leave my home and family to come and live there and take care of her till she dies, but I just can't, or won't. I am so sorry for her, and love her, but I want and need my own life, home and family. It doesn't stop me being anxious over her all the time, though. Thank goodness our daughter is happy and well. I don't think I could survive worrying about her, too. We also watch over my husband's mother who will be 90 in November. But she is a much more cooperative person than my mom, much more extroverted and enjoys what she can of her life, in spite of the diminishments of old age, especially short term memory loss. Oh-my mother is 93.

Nice to see you, Maewyn, virtually speaking!
