9. I know it's painful not being there with her

Over the years whenever my mother was in the hospital I was by her side every day, all day. I would travel to her when I lived out I’d state. I took over where the nurses left off. The nurses, always being overworked appreciated me being there. I would even take care of any room mates she had. When people become elderly they do need someone to watch and pay attention because of things like broken bones, and to make sure bed sores don’t get the chance to develop.

Hugs to you
