For those of you who were kind, you have my
thanks 
from the bottom of my heart.
For those of you who were less than thoughtful, and found sarcasm as an appropriate response, please don't read any further. It won't make a difference for you.
Dear Friends,
This is my dear Mom I'm talking about. She was supposed to come live with us, but her condition will soon warrant more medical care than I can give. She has a terminal condition that is slowly hardening her lungs. It will take her life. She also has several other diagnosis that complicate her care tremendously. On top of all her physical ailments, she suffers from depression as well. Her little poodle, who is a pain in the neck for everyone but her, is her life. Seriously. She's a sweet girl, but is very spoiled by Mom. Who can blame her, since my Dad died, she's been her constant companion.
Needless to say, my Mom is very cherished. We will do the best we can to keep her happy. And Mom is all Bea knows, they are inseperable.
Thanks and hugs to those who chose to see both sides.
Joy
