The familiar Kansas landscape. On a clear day you can see forever. Waiting for the green light while I’m out doing last minute errands.

Here we are – ready for the airport. Many thanks to Dean & Martha for the fabulous airport shuttle and the pleasure of mom be able to ride along.

Now I’m sitting in the Las Vegas airport waiting for my flight home and kind of filled with mixed thoughts about mom and how she will manage on her own in the next few months. Realizing I need to let her make her own choices as long as she is able and sometimes finding it hard not to be forceful when I disagree. This is mostly around her final decisions regarding her ongoing medications. But, it’s reassuring for me to know she is safe, very careful in her daily movement and finally eating enough food. Hopefully she won’t decide to drive anywhere. I continue to be grateful for the many loving eyes keeping watch on her well being.♥
