My absence

On March 22nd, my mom suffered a mild stroke, and she was hospitalized until Monday, the 24th. However, my sister and I have been trying to come up with a plan for her future care since she also has other major medical issues (diabetes, Parkinson's, and major heart disease-including two open heart surgeries already). Trying to research care facilities and other things have taken up the majority of time over the past week and a half. If there are any other sudden absences, they will probably be due to helping out Mom.

Even though I know you didn't have a choice but to wait for me to post again, I do appreciate your patience and reading my posts.
