Sorry, couldn't resist. <br /><br />My dad's denial when he was *going* because of his cancer - was something I found very difficult to handle - I didn't know whether I should TELL it like it IS, and risk frightening him? Or do I keep quiet and just let him say what he wanted? In the end I chose to keep quiet, and I'm glad I did, because his denial of his condition, were some of the last words he spoke to me. So let your mom talk as much as she wants to - because we don't need to go messing with their version of reality - or at least that is how I felt.<br /><br />It's hard to lose someone close to you - and your mom will have to deal with the inevitability of that soon enough. Getting older is rough, no two ways about it.Valkyriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103616426435591119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585523539249170974.post-9181613233492396042010-10-27T10:10:36.271-07:002010-10-27T10:10:36.271-07:00Hi Clare ;-) Yep, your little band of followers wi...Hi Clare ;-) Yep, your little band of followers will follow you wherever you shall wander! Glad you're back into blogging, us ex-pats need to keep each other on the straight and narrow. Sorry to hear about Mom's significant other, the heartbreak must be dreadful, especially when you can see she is determined not to see what is in front of her. It's self preservation, and is probably the only way she can see herself coping. So, so sad. Prayers with you all on this one. xxxxMisty'sMumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06004845425229133192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585523539249170974.post-28465605542807665812010-10-27T08:30:51.523-07:002010-10-27T08:30:51.523-07:00So with you on the 'being googled' thing. ...So with you on the 'being googled' thing.
