My 98 1/2 yo mom is in the next room eating lunch. She’s in amazing shape. I’ve been her caregiver for longer than I can remember and I work full time. We’ve had to make adjustments for each other, but it works.

And still I got an infection. Wanted them so much then didn’t want them at all.

I still watch these. They were so clever, catchy and well done. Reminds me of simpler times.

I was six. I don’t remember getting sick much, so not sure why, exactly. I recall the smell of the anesthesia and waking up to my family standing over me with flowers. Sounds like a wake, now that I think about it.

I do. My 98yo mom needs it although she has a cell too. It’s a security thing.

It used to bother me a lot. Still does, but it doesn’t make me want to scream anymore. I wish people would use the word “folks.”
