Members Lucky Posted October 1, 2010 Members Share Posted October 1, 2010 Thanks, MsGuy. The Yankees have really put their fans through the wringer these past few weeks,so finally getting a wild card berth is some relief. Now they have to get out of their slump and prove themselves to be true world champions. I am sitting here is a Priceline bought hotel in Michigan, where I am visiting my almost 93 year old mom in a nursing home. She was quite happy to see me, and proud for all the other ladies to take notice of her visitor. That's the easy part. The tough part is spending several hours a day with a person that doesn't have a real grasp of reality. On a previous visit with her, she slept a lot, but not now. Now she talks, endlessly, and about things I have no idea of. I don't what time frame of her life she is in in the particular moment, so answering the questions often provokes wonderment on her part as to how I could have possibly given that answer. Further, she has no idea where she is and wonders why there are other people in her room. But the officer is coming and he will straighten it out...of course, there is no officer. At times she does make sense. A lifetime devout Catholic, she now refers to some doubt, and acknowledges the doubt that her children developed. Her solution to that is the wonderment that it was her faith that brought her her family, which is now her greatest possession and comfort. Can't argue with that. I know that so many of you have already gone through this experience, so you know what it is like. A mix of pleasure and pain, for sure.
