Subject: What a pleasant surprise!

As I was cleaning up some old bookmarks on my computer, I thought I'd take a peek over here and see if anybody was posting again....what a lovely surprise! I have just had a wonderful time reading back on your posts and seeing so many familiar, if long absent, names. I am going to go back and add some replies.

Our family is leaving in a couple days for a long awaited trip to Disneyland, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Utah, and Yellowstone. We are driving the whole way with our two, now teenaged, children so it will be interesting. They have never been to Disneyland or any of our other destinations so we are all excited. Our son will be 16 in August so we thought we had better travel now otherwise he will be off on his own before we got the chance. They grow up too quickly.

I lost my dear Nana this past April (as in she went to be with God....we didn't misplace her). She had been battling dementia and was receiving ECT (electric shock therapy) to keep her dementia under control. It was working but she had to live in an extended care facility and she never would have wanted that. My mom, an only child, spent every afternoon for the last four years visiting with her and trying to help her maintain a positive attitude. Nana contracted pneumonia and passed away on April 2nd. She will be missed although I do feel that even though I have lost my Nana, I have got my mom back. My mom can now get on with her own living.

Wishing you all peace, love, and happiness....I am so happy to "see" you all again.

[> Brenda, have a wonderful trip, it sounds wonderful. I've been to a few of those places but I'd love to see the presidents carving in the rock in Utah. We were almost going to see it begining of june when I read that it was the most rainy season of the year, so we ended up touring south Florida 'g'. I'm sorry for your grand-mother, but she is at peace at last. Your mother can resume her life. -- Isabelle, 08:54:05 07/18/06 Tue
