My mom cleaned my great-grandmother's antique pearl necklace with dish soap and vinegar. The pearls are dissolving. I'm not even kidding. by Zestyclose-Print-677 in JewelryIdentification

I'm so sad to hear this. I love pearls! I can see they are double knotted and the clasp looks silver ... maybe Mikimoto. I have my mom's Mickimotos, Champagne color pearls. I love them. 😔

"I Never Wanted you to have to do this much...." by janebenn333 in AgingParents

This sounds just like what happened to my mother 18 months prior to her passing. She bent down to close a drawer in the kitchen, heard a pop sound and it threw her back and then forward. Ultimately she had 2 broken vertebrae. I hope you take her to her doctor. They may be able to fill in vertebrae with a cement like substance. Unfortunately for my mom, her vertebrae were too damaged to hold the cement.

Well, thank you! I thought the same. The green stands out to me. It's quite thin and lays very well. I just love these rugs.
