    Yeah, that is pretty far. That is about how far away I am from my parents. I can't even imagine what you are going through. Just the thought of it makes me want to cry.

    I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. It may not be much, but it's all I've got!:)

    Hey, NW, I'll tell you, it is the people here who have kept me going. You know AH (Allheart), Rubypitbull, Chippers, Laura of course, etc.

    I have been trying to get mom to move closer to me, but she is quite adamant that she can't leave here, for many reasons.

    There is NO possible way I can move closer due to school and hubby's job (his dad owns the business which will become ours when FIL passes).

    I will keep working on it though, getting Mom there that is. She just HATES Tennessee. (Shhhh, don't tell anyone, but I don't blame her, LOL).

    She has said she will be okay, but that is the nature of Mom, she doesn't let her emotions out.

    The only other one here is my 32 year old brother who still lives at home and doesn't work. Sad story really.

    Ohhhhh... You just be there for her when you can and it will all take it's course. I know you are a wonderful daughter. So glad to hear you have good support. I know the lovely people on this forum have helped me through too. (I am a little worried about chippers) I actually get the pleasure of living with (in separate homes of course) my husbands mother, father, uncle, grandma, and grandpa!! In September we will all be on 3.5 acres together and I am very nervous but know it is for the best. I hope she comes close to you. Sounds like the best plan... Hugs to you J..

    You know, we are hanging out here in Ohio with no family really close. It is tough. No one wants to tell me anything because I am so far away and they don't want me to worry. So, I typically hear things way after they happen.
    But, you have to do the best you can with what you have to work with. And it will work out the way it is supposed to.
    If nothing else, having your brother at home - your mom won't be alone.
    I could imagine it would be hard for her to leave - but her feelings are pretty raw (as are yours) right now - given time, she may change her mind.
