Home From the UK

Hello everyone! I got back from the U.K. on Wednesday evening, around 8PM local time. I had been over there to see my mother who will be 94 in June. She had not been too well recently, so I traveled over to see if I could be of any help to her and also to hopefully cheer her up by surprising her. We had a good two weeks together and I think she was feeling much better by the time I had to return to Canada. She had gained weight and her swollen legs were looking much better. During the time we were together, we spent a lot of time chatting over years gone by and recalling memorable times together and from her lifetime. It was very interesting that she could recall clearly events from 50 years ago, but was now having trouble remembering things we had discussed only an hour or so before. When I left, her spirits were good, she was still able to care for herself in her own home and she made it easy for me to leave.
