At the beginning of the year I took my mother shopping for an assisted living place. We found one she liked and the plan was to get her into it in October. She had been on here own since 1999 living 5 miles out of town on an 80 acre farm. By mid May her mind had slipped to the point that she could no longer stay there. She got a little testy at times as I told her it was time to go, but she knew it was time. I moved her out June 15th she remembers nothing about the move or even what the house she lived in the last 52 years looks like. Her plan was to die out in her flower beds pulling weeds. Well I told her that it was just not her time yet.
Here it is almost 5 months later and she is enjoying her new life. I visited her today and she was in the middle of special activities time. She handed me this and said I made this for you. It kind of struck me as like when I was coming home from school as a little kid and telling her I made this for you.
