My MIL is 94 and sharp as they come mentally...but her spine is collapsing and causing her such pain. She moved in with her daughter in Fla. but misses her home in NY. She goes to PT three times a week so she can keep walking with a walker and not lose her last bit of independence. So hard growing old :0(Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05430521425239584348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4655771233639274287.post-18754217000014651392018-05-21T10:03:02.644-07:002018-05-21T10:03:02.644-07:00So sorry to hear about your Mom.

One keeps packing her clothes because "mom and dad" are coming to pick her up. It's a horrible disease. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
