Put On Those Traveling Shoes

Good evening to all. Boy are we tired. Two days of traveling to Raleigh are draining. But very much worth it. I was able to take grandma to see mom today and that felt very good. They both were able to visit for about 1 1/2. This was a win win for everyone. Robin and I were able to finish mom's room at Robin's and boy is it pretty.

Robin and I both are aware of how hard it is for people to get to see mom. Please understand that we moved mom to were she could get the best care and right now that is Robin's in Raleigh.
Mom is happy there and Robin is able to do thing for her that a nursing home or hospital could do for her. Robin is able to give 24/7 to her if needed. I am here taking care of things in Greensboro. We are not discouraging people to go and see Mom, we are only asking that you call ahead so that Robin can have mom up and ready for company. We are also excited to see other people. We miss our mom more so than we can even say. We know that everyone misses mom. we miss her too.

We both want to thank everyone for their prayers and support as Robin and I go into area that we have never been in. We are doing everything we can do to honor our mothers wishes with everything we do. What ever my mom asks for magically appears before her post hast if possible.

Thanks again for everything everyone has done from sheets and ensure to food for Robin and Mom. That is one less thing Robin has to do and that means alot. After spending the last two days in Raleigh have given me a new appreciation for my sister. (don't tell her because her head will swell). When I see her handle mom's meds and mom in general, my heart stops. I know that I could not do that for mom but I thank the Lord each night that Robin can..I can pay bills, balance check books and take care of the condo day in and day out... that is not a problem for me.
got a problem with a bill or I need to make a phone call on moms behalf- I can do it with my eyes closed. For those who don't know- I am much meaner than Robin and I keep my accounts pretty short. I will call and get things straight in a heart beat. This has proven very helpful for me for mom's accounts.

thanks again, Robin I love you and I am thankful for you.
you big stupid head.

love,

wendy
