A well-deserved age! Happy Birthday to your Mom.
My f-i-l at age 79/80 has recovered beautifully - as I've said so many
times before -- It takes a lot of tenacity on everyone's part to help them
thru it. We lived it and breathed it for almost 2 years. We're so glad we
were entrenched with it. I know my f-i-l like I would've never known him.
There's always a great deal of hope nowadays.
