Welcome back!
My mother-in-law is alive. Today she will be moved to a nursing home in Temple, TX. for rehabilitation.

Mom is going away.
We have been told that her kidneys have stopped functioning completely. We have no idea just how long her leaving will take. Already it have taken longer than the doctors suspected. On the first of May, we were told that she had about 2 weeks. Obviously it is [...]

Remember the spill in the Gulf of Mexico? What happened to all of the news coverage? What happened to the people trying to make a living in spite of the mess? What has happened to the business in those areas?
