Hi Pauline, I can't believe that the photo of the 2 of us was 5 years ago, so Mom was 86 in that photo! She still looked so good there, she'd had brain surgery the year before which gave her another five years of quality life, as the surgeon said. Her last year was extremely difficult with her balance deteriorating, but she was stubborn, refused to use a walker, and a walking stick, so she'd often go tumbling and give us such a fright!
Our GP often looks at me and says she can't believe how much I'm starting to look like my Mom. I see the likeness at times.
I was immensely privileged to have had such a special spunky Mom.
