Default Tough Times

Doug,

Went through nearly the exact same thing. My mom was a life long smoker and fell in her back yard. Although not broken, her hip was badly bruised. No cancer but the medication they put her on caused her extreme dehydration. She didn't recover and died in her sleep. She wanted two things in death, not to suffer and not be in a nursing home. She got both.

Your RV family is thinking about you in these tough times. Hang in there!!!

Doug,
My heartfelt sympathies to Mom on this terrible news. We know from your writings that she is one tough lady, and we know she'll fight through this. Give Mom a gentle hug (watch those ribs!), and tell her we're all pulling for her.

Prayers to all, and hugs to you and Susie too. If you need anything, just let me know.

DR, just say the word and give us an address and I bet several thousand cards would be winging her way. At that age they prefer cards to computers. That's gotta make her feel better.

My 89yo mom (dementia +) fell and broke her hip 3 weeks ago. Struggling with rehab here.

Keeping your family in our prayers.

Stay strong.
