A rally

Nice Easter dinner with Mom today. We had Julie's mom, Julie's cousin, Ez, me and JV -- six altogether. Mom made it through church, rested a bit, and survived a coffee hour and a meal in the fancy restaurant that lasted almost two hours. She looked good, talked a little, and was upbeat. She has a way of rallying in when she needs to. She pleaded when I left, and it gave me no cheer to have to be firm.

  1. My friend (Sister L) introduced me to your blog and it heartens me to hear what you are going through with your mom in Wisconsin, so similar to watching our mom's decline in Brooklyn. I look forward to your posts each Sunday. You have a way of conveying your mother's plight and your own without whining and sentiment. Good luck with your move.
