Well wishes to your mom VG...

We just buried my 89 year old MIL last week. She had a wonderful run. It's tough when parents get this old, tougher if you have to bury em too soon. My mother didn't even make 50. 

All we can hope for (for them and us) is quality for whatever time the good lord giveth. 

I am sorry for your losses Purplewhizz.

Thank you PF. I am very sorry for your loss.

It started last week with what she thought was food poisoning. And then I started think cold or flu. But then with the chest xrays, I knew they were looking for pneumonia. I agree with you about the quality of life. She doesn't have issues with blood pressure, diabetes or cholesterol which is good. The only relatively recent health issues were a knee and hip replacement 3 or 4 years ago. Perspective came real quick. I am glad she is home now.
