having spent my career in child protection then as a hospice social worker i have a rather skewed view of life AND death. my 95.5 y/o mother is now in hospice and we are all ready for her to go.....no one more ready than SHE. but i donтАЩt want her to go before she can vote.....is that selfish? LOL
My limited experience with elders who are dying is that they have considerable control when they go. When the last sibling arrives, when everyone leaves the room after an animated visit. So your mom will go when she choses. And your are giving her a noble purpose..to help save democracy. What a gift! You are absolved of guilt!
Thank you Marie. Just saw her this past week and she plans on sticking around to vote. Unfortunately she votes in Florida but it is Broward County
Good for your Mom. I hope the storm last week didnтАЩt cause her any problems. And at least Broward is staunchly Democratic.
Did not affect her but delayed our departure. Thanks, Donna
