    As you probably would know, I have just become the care giver to a second person in my home. My 91 year old father has just moved in with us after the death of my step mother.

    I cannot but be positive with his attitude to life and his old age related infirmities.

    He told me today that he was pleased to see the progress made by my wife since the last time that he saw her which was in the year 2002. He was trying to motivate me to stay positive!

    Hi rummuser,

    I’m sure your wife and father-in-law are blessed to have you as their caregiver. It also sounds like you have a built-in family “support group.” And isn’t that what life is about?

    Hi SpaceAgeSage — Lori,

    Glad you liked them all.

    Hi Davina,

    Thank you for your support!

    And may you all have a new year filled with good health, peace, love, prosperity and laughter!

    Hi Linda – I love the part, “Hope whispers, “Try it one more time.”

    Without trying “one more time”, we may miss out on an opportunity of a lifetime.
