Chick thanks for asking about my Mom. She is slowly becoming “less”. So those precious moments that I can share with her are all the more valuable. I have her on a waiting list now for an old age home. And most importantly, she wants to go there too. So the time is right.
By the way Chick, I sent you a PM. Have you received it?

You know, Gims, going to a planetarium with my mother never entered my mind before. I just happened to see an advertisement. Yes, it had recliners, and we felt like we were flying through orbit;…as if the entire room were tilting. Mom loved it. She held my hand during the entire show.
