LIVE LIFE AND LAUGH

[MBPL]

I had hoped mom would last long enough to make her museum debut here in the Bay Area in October 2010. I am still hopeful. But, you know there comes a time when families need to face the truth, not be selfish and let their family member move along quietly and peacefully. Today mom's doctor said her physical health is fading due to Parkinson's, not the shaking kind the kind that renders you stiff.

I have a heavy heart, this is all new to me. But, no pity or worry for me, we have all been through this or are going through it. For some reason I felt the need to put it out online, so there it is.

"Live life and laugh" is all I can say. MBPL

I know it is not easy.

sometimes things just suck! to remember to laugh is key. i've lost both of my parents and my siblings and i all were able to find laughter through the tears and pain. we are all better off when we laugh and live our lives with kindness and compassion.

my very best to you and your loved ones in this scary time.

Hey!! lady Lorrie... keep your head up my friend.

[MBPL]

Thank you all, really. I'm home sick, coughing up everything from midgets to small animals...so, you know I am in that "feeling sorry for myself" mode.

Seriously, I WILL keep my head up, well, I have no choice, do I? I think the shock of having the doc tell my brother and I hit hard.

Thanks to everyone, I know we all have our moments. I am just grateful I am not alone. L

I am just grateful I am not alone.

That great outlook is gonna get you through all this lady.
You're right we are never alone unless we so choose to be.
I'll be praying and holding happy hopes for you and yours MBPL.
