[quote=Anonymous]Just saying "I love you" isn't enough. Visit and do things together. Maybe its watching baseball, play cards, look through old pictures, ask about old stories. My mother has had a series of strokes and is just coming to terms with her loss of independence. I think she's tired of giving updates on how well she's walking or the patterns of her BMs. On Mother's Day we went thru the box of old photos and talked about past vacations. This weekend we're hoping to get out for a picnic. I think we've all recognized that she could/should have died 6 months ago so we're trying to make every visit count. And it seems like its the small things that mean the most for all of us. [/quote]
