Hi, Mr. Ed,

Always great to hear from you. I think you are right, with age comes experiences that stretch us. About an hour before I received that phone call, the thought crossed my mind that they had had an accident. The past two weeks have challenged me to reach for help from people who knew more than I did. Mom and Dad are now safely in the assisted living center. Mom will continue therapy to get back on both feet in the next couple of months.

I know there are many other decisions ahead of us as we continue to deal with their aging.

Great to hear from you.

So sorry about your folks accident. But, am delighted they’re going to be ok, as you implied?

Years ago I had to accept that if we live long enough, we’ll be visited with personal tragedy of some sort. How we deal with it, makes or breaks us…our choice.

From your post, I’d say this tragedy is making you. Bless you and your folks.
Edward

Hi, James,

Thank you for your encouragement. Having something to occupy my mind has kept me from running down all the possibilities. We are making some good progress in getting Mom and Dad to the next step. I am just grateful to have access to great support and answers to my questions. My product is making progress this week too. So glad wifi is in all these big health facilities.

I wish you all the best!

Hi, Sandy,

Thank you for stopping by again! I love your warm comments. The past 6 days have felt like 6 years. Constant details to address. I am never sure everything is ready for the next day. I do wish you all the best in all of your endeavors.

I have been ‘managing’ this priorities between kids and work. On one hand, learning the ropes to build my blog; on the other hand, kids constant needs for attention. I admit I spent too much screen time and it has not been a healthy role modeling, but there are simply too much to learn. I learn to accept that kids needs come first, everything else is secondary. It is still a work in progress, but I am managing it.

You are doing great Mialei. Find you a strong and soulful person. Keep on keeping on. You are excellence!

To your Abundance, Sandy 🙂
