Five lessons I learned from Mom

1. The spirit is never suppressed.
2. Humor lightens hardship.
3. Prayer is the fountain of hope.
4. Song praises the soul.
5. Family is forever.

(Note: Mom, who suffered from Alzheimer's for more than 12 years, passed away in October 2009)

    Hi Robyn,

    My pleasure. There are many other lessons/stories to come out about Mom and her nursing home.

    Thanks for this one, my dad passed away 3 years ago suffering with Dimentia, while my mom passed away just last Jan 05 of this year.

    So sorry for your losses. It is hard when our parents pass away. Dad passed on last March of a stroke, and Mom lived another seven months. Blessings to you!
