Sue, I haven't been on the site for a while and just saw that your mother passed. Please know that you are in my prayers - along with Ray and your mum. I understand your feeling sad and glad at the same time - I had a similar situation with my mom. Please try to take care of yourself amid all this stress and know that many are praying for you. Sheila

Thanks for the heads up Lenny. I would not have thought to look for that, but will do so now! Sheila

Lenny, thanks for this post - it came at a much needed time for Greg. He hasn't been feeling well lately, and been having more trouble walking - and it seems to be exactly what you said - he doesn't seem to trust his leg, and yet it does seem to be moving the same as always. I read him your post and he said he would try that. It gave him some incentive! Keep up the good work, Lenny! Sheila

Sue, this is so heartbreaking - I don't know what to say other than my thoughts and prayers are with you always. Sheila

Debbie, I am adding you to my prayer list tonite! It is so true that with having Bruce to take care of it adds so much worry to any bad weather situation. I, too, am a worrier, and one of my big fears is fire. I have developed OCD with appliances, LOL. Anyway, it sounds like you are, as usual, right on the ball - you amaze me with your foresight! You really do inspire me to try harder with so much that I do (and don't do). Sincerely, Sheila

:Very well said, Fred - and God bless you! . Sheila

How wonderful that Bruce is able to drive the scooter. I have often thought about one for Greg, but have held off because of his vision issue. ( no vision in right side of both eyes) Does Bruce have any vision issues? Also, how nice to get the chance to see Bruce interact verbally on his own. I think we all, as caregivers, tend to speak for them more than we should. Thanks for the reminder to let him do more of the talking. (I'm a talker and have to try harder to keep my big mouth shut) LOL
