Greetings from north Florida! I came down the weekend before Thanksgiving for a quick visit with my beloved mom, who came down with pneumonia. She’s 99 and still sick, so I’m still here. It’s a lot. A weird thing has happened, though. It’s like the proverbial oxygen mask has descended. I’m deeply sad, but not freaking out. I see moments of grace in the nursing home every day. And your writing is a beacon of real loveliness. I’m grateful.:)

I can relate to this, Katy.

Glad you managed to get the food items you wanted eventually.
