Lar, anyone who has to put up with shite like this is awesome just for doing it!

My dad finally died of his alcoholism several years ago, but my mom is still alive and well and drinking, and stubborn as all get-out -- she's 77 and just finally realized, after she fell on her face and gave herself her umpteenth concussion, that she needs to be in assisted living.

While that's probably true, it would also help if she would quit drinking....but that's unlikely to happen.

My mom was my perp too, so I know all the mixed feelings you must be having, and the trouble that goes along with dealing with them, and with her. That you're hanging on to your sanity and pulling the whole deal off makes you awesome in my book too!
