I will be curtailing or cutting back reading and responding to post. Not
because of something said or done. but family illness.

Over the Turkey Day Holiday and since. My mother has either suffered
Sudden onset of Alzheimer's or a Mani-stroke. She has lost all energy to
do task, and simple task such as operating Microwave we've had 30 years,
to writing her name legibly has gone. the least thing said she not takes
the wrong way and get her and me upset. I have a MRI set (Brain Scan)
set up for Monday Noon EST.

I'm about to lose it myself. and what little time I will now get on the
computer will be my salvation and route to sanity.

Thanks to all the friends, enemies and acquaintances, I have encountered
here. Have enjoyed the experience. I just don't know how often I can get
on the computer to keep up.

Wish me luck! :-( :-( :-(

That's going to be a hard road for a while. I hope you and she manage
OK.

Hi Phillip:

Man, I am going to miss you.

I hope to see your smiling face around here whenever you get a moment.

I guess you are at the age when these difficulties come to us all. My turn
came a few years back.

The only useful piece of advice I can offer is "There is no 'right' way to
do this. Only YOUR way. YOUR way will be perfect, because it is for your
mother, your family, and you."

I hope that helps

Dear Phillip,

I well remember when your Dad was ill and subsequently passed away, and how
devastating that was for you. But you came back, and we were very glad you
did. Our thoughts are with you, and we look forward to when things are
better for you.

Sincerely,

Clive
