That will take the focus off of me for a minute or two. But then, it is back home then to the office tomorrow where I hate to be. Just thinking about it leads me on the road to the thoughts of regret, worry and despair.

But for now, visiting "mom", and getting an ice cream. Happy 4th.
Hi regretful....I'm really sorry you're feeling so bad, and that the tears are flowing. I'm very grateful for the respite I'm experiencing right now, but of course the reality that things can slip quickly is always there....I guess that's why it's so important to take it moment by moment (preaching to myself on this), but what else is there to do?? Oh to have a magic wand. Otherwise, so sorry that your Mother-in-Law is suffering from Parkinson's, but it's so nice that you'll be visiting with her today. I hope it brings you some comfort. Best wishes to you both.....
Thanks for this!
