Sorry to hear that your stepf doesn't feel capable/comfortable to help her with clothes-buying. _________________________ http://cyclewriteblog.wordpress.com/ (How cycling leads to other types of adventures, thoughts) http://velourbansism.wordpress.com

Be certain to affirm your mom's life with her so she can go in peace. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

Princess Lenora Member Registered: 11/11/04 Posts: 3503 Loc: Colorado	I do not like to hit and run here. I will be back later tonight and tomorrow. I wanted to pop in and let you know the trip went well. I learned a lot about the power of prayer and peace in transition, even when transition is a long slow ordeal. It has been one of my life's lessons that my timing has nothing to do with God's timing, or even the timing of another human. The visit went well, my step-father was reasonable, my mother is 97 percent in dementia yet safe, and she gets to eat what she wants when she wants, including eclairs and cheesecake. More later and will catch up on you, Lynn _________________________ "Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice." http://beyondthetears.blogspot.com http://www.facebook.com/lynn.tolson http://www.facebook.com/pages/Beyond-the-Tears-A-True-Survivors-Story/130880013605676

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	I understand your comment on timing. Mom was under hospice care for I'm guessing a month. They really expected Mom to die for well over a week. It was hard to believe that she hung on as long as she did, but when she died on St. Patrick's Day, after we'd all finished our corned beef and cabbage, we understood God's timing. Thinking of you while you travel this journey. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com
