Very well said, It beats my “Pretty shitty, how about you”. I’ve gotten some strange looks with that one, but honestly, sometimes it’s the only thing that comes out. Some days are harder than others, but mom is always on my mind…

I agree, the health insurance situation is awful. You’re damned if you do, damned if you don’t. I have doubts that medi-cal will cover any costs surrounding mom’s death. For one, they are not even covering people who ARE insured through them, they’re cutting services, and people who really SHOULD be covered through medi-cal (not saying you shouldn’t be) are being denied. Our system needs an overall. I’m not sure how though…

I am deeply saddened by your loss of Lorretta. I still can’t get over it and am praying that time calms your saddened soul and rejoycies in the many loveing memories you shared together. There will be a day when you will meet again! May your and my God bless and keep you and your family close through the days ahead.
