Here I go again talking about my mom.
Some say we look alike. We both have blue eyes. We have been alike in some ways and others quite different.
I was born on her birthday. I kid her once in awhile about what a birthday present I was.
Tommorrow is another step in moms' life. She is leaving long term at the hospital and we are taking her to a nursing home.
Hoping it goes well.
I would like to share something I found out about moms dementia and lung infection that I didnt know. When a person has dementia and gets an infection of some kind they can become very delirious. I knew this from past experience with her. What I didnt know was the delirium can last for days, weeks or months after the infection is cleared. That was the confusing and scary part we didnt understand.
Mom is her pleasant self again. Good Luck tommorrow Mom, hope you like your new home.

Our Family Trip
Back in May my husband and I flew to B.C. and met our 2 daughters.
We then rented a motor home and off we headed to the U. S. border.
We first visited the HOH Rainforest in Olympic National Park, Washington.
We were all blown away by the beauty of it.
So mystical and green and full of life.
It was like another world.
As you can see in the photo I've added.
Then down the Oregon Coast, with breathtaking views, tide pools and marine life.
We'd drive along and stop for hikes through the forest or check out tide pools ect..
I loved seeing all the seals, whales, deer, elk, and even banana slugs, I'd never seen before.
We then headed down to the California Reds. Talk about huge wonderful trees. You just cant imagine, until you are walking through them.
Our family loves nature and we sure got to see lots of it.
The best part of the trip was we got to do it with our girls, and even better yet, they spoiled me and cooked all the meals.
It was a time we will always remember.
