ON THE BACK BURNER

In spite of and maybe because of, our house is a happy house. Our son and Grandson are talking and laughing. Catching up on their lives. Bob is content to be near where they are and listening, although perhaps not focusing on them. Noodle likes the extra attention. I am getting relief because I am not here alone, Tidewell Hospice is supportive and  right here if I need them. It is not a sad place to be. We all know what is coming, we don't have anything that hasn't been said or felt . We are not sitting wringing our hands, but instead, we are providing a peaceful environment for all of us. This scenario can last awhile, or not. It is not for us to decide  , but in the meantime, we're good, thank you.
