As older members of the club may have noticed HNS Texas Mama hasn't been joining us for the Eden Lit Club meetings. Life has stepped in and sort of swept her away into a journey none of us is looking forward to taking.
Her elderly Father was placed in rehab because he was over medicating himself with pain meds and nearly died. He is not suicidal, thank goodness but seems to be losing the ability to care for himself. He needs assisted living arrangements made and she lives half the Country away!
To add to the mess her Mother has recently suffered a bout of pneumonia that is complicating the stage 3 lung cancer she is suffering from. The hospital is setting up hospice care for her. To make matters worse, or better depending on your perspective, she suffers from Altzheimers. She has no idea she has cancer and they aren't going to tell her.
She is learning things about her parent's relationship that are very painful and it's a stressful time, so drop her a note here just to let her know we are thinking of her and wish her the best.
