Being there when mom got vasuclar Deminthia ( now alzheimers) and I was able to care for her for 7 years at home before having to place her in a nursing home. Now that Hospice is with her I am thankful everyday I got to help her, share these last few years with her. I am thankful for things I learned about myself. She has seen many of my quilts and loved them all. I am thankful I have quilting to take my mind off things, my job and a wonderful quilting bee. and quilting retreat buddies. Thank you for asking this question
