So long since we stumbled upon each other Lisa, and as always, through an inspirational read.

Thinking upon your mother's journey I see that some people seem to limp along towards home, while others are cut down so quickly.

Your mother's journey affords you time (and room for humour) to embrace the fact that the end will soon be here.

I hope your journey to see her was a safe one, and trust you're doing well despite the odds.
