Mom and Me

I love this picture of Mom and me.

The last six months have been a bit tougher. Mom's health has been up and down, with her being close to death a couple of times in November. Following these episodes, both her hearing and eyesight became significantly worse.

She's been feeling much better since the turn of the year, but adjusting medication is a constant balancing act. Which is more important: kidneys or heart? I say without the heart, you don't have to worry about the kidneys. Mom says she would rather die from congestive heart failure than from kidney failure.

I have learned to appreciate the good days.
