Ninety-One and Having Fun!

Tonight we celebrated my mother's 91st birthday.  She's still getting dressed up, getting her hair and nails done and having fun...  This is in spite of her being on hospice for two years and seven months with end stage heart failure.  She has other issues unrelated to her hospice diagnosis including COPD, immobility, and short term memory failure.

No matter.  She rocked in her tiara, beneath her plethora of Mylar balloons.  She ate like a lumberjack.

A good time was had by all..  Her smile says it all.  

Enjoy every minute with your parent or loved one.
