Prayers up.
Prayers for you mom. How old is she, if you don’t mind sharing?
76 years old. She never really adjusted to my father dying in 2010.
I don’t know how this will all play out, but she’s stable for now. She does try to talk, but it’s hard to understand her. But she definitely knows who we are and wants to go home.
you know I will.
you will be running to CA in May, but hopefully it will brighten up up there in the meantime! A++++
Added prayers.
She sounds like a fighter. Hang in there.
We actually leave in April, Less than a month. 29 days.
sitting on the pitbulls bed for a rest.
Cavs best of all.
Looks like the big dog is petting him, too.
LOL it does. a 9 week old chocolate lab about his size attempted to mount and dominate him there, he wasn’t having it.
It’s been a long winter for the dogs, too. Looks like a nice event for them.
bet buffy can’t wait for it to warm up to spend some time outside too!
what is the progress on the MOB dress?
It was pleasant yesterday and she pranced up and down the street on her leash visiting with all the neighbors for a couple of hours. She was exhausted.
I may be resizing the dress I have. I will give it another week or so before I panic.
