Carol,

Thanks for stopping by. It has been difficult for me to get back into blogging and social media after Gladys took a turn for the worse. I hope to get back into writing and tweeting soon. On my way to read about your mom.

God bless Gladys! 5 years being in bed after a stroke is amazing. Gladys is right.. no way to live. My Mom had a stroke (severe) and passed withing 12 hours. I know she was very grateful to go so quickly. One thing my Mom knew is that she did not want to live like Gladys. Please read my story about my Mom and her last hours
Passing of Mom A bittersweet story.

Thank you.

My best,

My condolences. It takes a while to get over the experience of caring for and losing an elderly relative, as I know. All the best to you and your family.

Hi Valerie,

I’m sorry to hear about Gladys. I’ve been reading about your journey for over a year now (I think) when we were caring for my father. I’ve been challenged reading your posts, and I’ve been comforted. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself during a very difficult time.
