I made the dreaded call today.  My mother has been sick for some time with a rare form of Diabetes and Parkinsons.  Since I live in Dallas and my parents live in Alabama and I have no other siblings, I decided to call a Home Health Care Provider.  Regardless of your past or present with your parents, I guess you just never think of them as getting older.  This is a realization to me that the situation has reached a critical level.  I certainly think anything is possible and this could all turn around tomorrow.  But, I don't know if my mother's spirit has anymore energy.  And that's the true sadness.  I don't want to ever be to the point where I give up.  I refuse.
