My mum (Mae) is
the most amazing woman she is pain 24/7 due to back problems and has to take
very strong pain medication in order to get around, however, that doesn’t stop
her watching one of her 3yr old granddaughters or her 10mth old granddaughter
numerous times during the week she is also the primary care of my 14yr old
nephew who has ODD & epilepsy. Not because he has bad parents, he doesn’t
but because that is the way it has worked out and he is happiest when he is
with his nanna and yes she does spoil him and let him get his own way often.
Mum along with
myself go and visit her mum at the nursing home every single Wednesday, mum
also cares for my dad who had lung cancer in 2009 and since then has had many
health problems, including memory problems.
My parents have
5 children, 17 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren. Mum is there for all of
us, she doesn’t seem like a 73yr old woman. I think mum is the clue that holds
this family together what about the rest of my siblings what do you think…………..

DeleteJo-Anne! I've been meaning to stop by your blog for awhile now because you always leave the funniest and nicest comments on my page! Loved your one about "water your blog" to make it grow! You should attach your email address to your login so that way I can respond directly to you. Right now it just shows Jo-Anne Meadows Anyway, just wanted to say thank you for all of your sweet comments, they always brighten my day!
ReplyDeleteI have tried and tried to have my email address attached followed all the directions given to me by other bloggers and still it isn't happening and I have no idea why............
