JimH,

I am sorry your mom had to suffer 8 yrs in a nursing home. I sometimes
wonder why as a society, we spend so much time money and effort to extend
someone's life with so little concern for their quality of life. I am not
making any judgment on you or your mom's situation, but I know when it is my
time to go, I have a living will limiting what anyone can do to extend my
life.

The ideal way to go is to go to sleep and not wake up.

Not about Harry this time. First post I saw from JimH this morning
after his self-imposed exile, was what I took as a jab at Chuck.



Yep. And what did it have to do with you Don?



(I'm guessing that likeness on the Tinyurl is supposed to be Chuck)



If that is who you think it is based on the characteristics I listed
then that's your option.



Not quite like that. I'm getting to understand your 'MO'!



Good. We are getting to know each other better and better each day, and
that is a good thing.

How is your Mom doing Don? (an honest question). As others have said
I also applaud you for taking care of her.


She's doing fine, thanks. She hits 91 next month.

My Mom passed away earlier this year. She suffered a stroke some 14 or so
years ago and went downhill from there, eventually ending up in a nursing
home for the past 8 or 9 years. Even being at a nursing home took quite a
toll on me and my sisters with weekly visitations and making sure she was
being cared for properly.

Glad to hear your Mom is doing well Don. 91 years young............very
impressive.
