My cousin, Lorraine had to go out of town for approx. a month, so sis and I were asked to come be with Mom in IL. Don and I arrived mon Feb 25th, and planned to stay 9 nights. Sis arrived that sat., (03/01?) and planned to stay as long as it took. Don HAD to go back to TN for two appt's at the VA, and left wed (fifth?)... two hours out of Rockford, the transmission blew on the truck. He MADE his appt on Friday. He suggested I STAY, so I did. Mom died that Friday, march 7th. Nancy left saturday following. I stayed and started the process of emptying Mom's apt. Nancy arrived back on the following thursday, as did Don. Nancy left Sunday, Don and I finished up and left yesterday, Monday the 17th. It was a LONG three weeks. Mom died at home. Will post more when I recup a bit. Noreen
