I can relate to your situation, since my husband has COPD/Emphysema . I have found that once you become seriously ill, although you may have enjoyed the simple pleasures of nature, you come appreciate them more. I was touched as you told how your father is respectful of the little ones' space. My husband has always been a lover of nature, but now, I find he is more tender hearted toward all that encompasses nature.I love your snap shot, and it is so nice to know that you are a Mystic photographer, which means you have the "eyes" of a Mystic. I am one as well, but photography . . . I don't know, I just never got the hang of it.One more thing, as a Hospice worker, I am very touched by how kind you are to your father. Many children have not faced their own mortality, so they have problems attending to their parents' needs during a serious illness. God bless you darlin'. Hello Carla.

Of all the memories with my beloved mother, one keeps bringing me grins and laugh-out-loud moments. Doggedly frugal and practical, she lectured me endlessly about the virtues of filling up my own car with gas (up north there was an option to let someone else deal with the grimy, smelly stuff!) One night after a wonderful dinner out together, she decided to show me how easy it is and spilled gasoline all over herself, proving my point. We laughed so hard at the irony that we both ended up sitting on the pavement for close to an hour with tears running down our cheeks before we could contain ourselves, much to the amusement of other gas patrons. By the way, she never bugged me about self-serve gas again - and then I moved south and had no choice, much to her delight I'm sure! I get to grin and laugh now every time I fill up, saying "Happy now, Mom?".It's that moment that finally overcame the sorrow and anguish of her last days with Alzheimers in my memories of her, as I know this moment, and other moments you will share with your Daddy, will do for you. Thanks for sharing. I'm snickering out loud again remembering my mother's hysterical laughter in her gas soaked out-to-dinner frock!
