Bad News

 

My mother's condition has grown steadily worse over the past 24 hours. Her doctors don't think she'll live much longer.

There's no time for me to get down there, and Covid restrictions means I wouldn't be able to see her in person anyway. We're arranging a zoom call.

My poor father. They've been married 62 years. He's going to be lost without her, never mind the dementia.

I'm so very sorry. It's hard on all of you. Are your brothers able to be there, and to keep your dad eating?

They are! Everyone is conspiring to keep him fed.

He understands what's happening now, which is a relief of sorts. Before, he kept asking where she was and when she was coming home.
