Sue,

You do so much. I don't know how you have the energy to do all that you do.

The picnics sound fun. I do agree that they will take alot more energy and time on your part.

I am sorry that you had such a short visit with your Mum. I can just imagine the guilt that you have.

You are so blessed to have grandchildren.

I understand the worrying about another stroke. I pray that we do not have another one.

Ruth

And life goes on generation after generation. Shows us we are getting older and wiser!

Sue:

we have my niece's energetic 4 year old at our house for long weekend. It is lot of fun but all of us now needs one day break to regroup for our son's school.I was telling by the time our grand kids will come, both of us will be so tired & old. Though kids bring lot of joy in life today we had so much fun visiting zoo & picnicing at the zoo.

awww sue, i am sad to hear ray had another fall, but glad he is ok. please try not to worry about another stroke for ray. lets just hope connections got mixed up and his brain didn't process them correctly. he could have been tired and just moved the wrong way. i agree with ruth and you doing so much, you have to be exhausted most of the time. i wish you had more help. finding time to do as trev suggested would be good for both of you if you have the energy. as you said. trying to see your mum as much as you can is tough too. but please don't feel guilty about it. you are only 1 person and you are running yourself ragged, then you will be down. and unable to do much of anything. only others here understand what you do everyday for ray. i can only read your blogs and understand how it is for you, wishing i could wave a wand and get the help and rest you need. but please know we are here to help in anyway we can, even if its just listening. god bless you for all you do.

hugs,

kimmie
