dear akc,
i agree with susan and triedit (robin?) (is that robinibor?)...my thoughts are with you...it must hurt so much to see a parent in peril...but you've got to keep yourself togther in order to deal with keeping yr momma together. are you seeing a therapist regularly? please, i hope you are. if i were in yr situation i'd want to see a therapist several times a week. the potential loss of a parent is absolutely devastating.
there is much work for you to do--as a lawyer, as a friend, as a social contributer. please keep us ypdated on what is going on.
3 years ago my dad held his momma's hand and whispered that it was okay for her to die. she was in her eighties, in much mental pain, having lost both er husband and her daughter in the past 5 years. she died when he said that. my dad had been crushed ever since. he sits lifeless on the couch.
i don't want anyone else to be like that. we are organic. birth growth existence death, oh akc, i hope you are okay, plz keep your pretty chin up and let us know how you are--do not allow this to overcome you--read books on this topic--pray on your porch--
love,
sar
