I actually like these. I have fabrics that will work. I guess I just need to get busy and sign up.

Thinking of you
travelinggramma
My mom is 94 and lives in NY although she is in a step up home, right now in independent living. I'm a fall Prevention specialist. After she fell on the ice when she was 88 (no damage, we got lucky) she doesn't try to go outside in the coldest snow/ice weather. I have her doing exercises every day and walking. It's not easy to have an exercise physiologist for a daughter.
For your mom, better an arm than a hip. Your mother sounds so active, that she'll make it through this with flying colors. Hope she heads to FLA with you!

Travelinggramma & Terriamn, hugs and best wishes. May the doctors and nurses be skilled and caring of your parents. Please keep yourselves safe.
TG - Glad she is so active. Tell her Florida has pretty good doctors, too. And the weather is a LOT warmer! It's about 72 degrees today.
Cheers!

Thanks ladies, Mom was doing better today.
We had our first big snow fall last weekend and it's 4 degrees outside. Dh and I went to dinner and bought some groceries let me tell you walking across that parking lot was cold and carrying in the groceries wasn't exactly a treat either. We had such great weather in November it spoiled us.
