My Mother Is Making Me Crazy!!!!!
Hi all....lol As you all know, Mom is 87 years old, does kidney dialysis while she sleeps and has heart failure. There is this man that comes to my Mom's home every morning for coffee, he also helps take out her trash and odds and ends. He also makes the rounds to other women's homes too. He is married and is probably in his late 70's.
She had everything in her camper loaded up and then had him take her dialysis machine and supplies out to her camper this morning.......she decided to go camping this weekend at a campground near here with the campers club she belongs to. I went through a list of everything to make sure she had all she needed and told her to call if she needed anything. So far....no phone call so hopefully she remembered everything. I sure hope I can be like her when I'm 87 and drive Ricky crazy....LOLOL

WOW Janet! That is just great that she even wants to go do things. Does she tow the camper or how does she get it to the campground?
I hope we all have her spunk when we're 87 lol! It's nice of that guy helping your Mom out. Do ya think he might have a crush on her?

I don't know if he has a crush or not...and don't ask...lol. He helps other women too, but he is married. She pulls her own 19 foot travel trailer with a large station wagon. I'm glad she can do this, but she's making me a nervous wreck.

Yes...she is living life to the fullest and I'm thrilled, but nervous too. I would never ever tell her she couldn't go camping, she loves it. She won't let anyone else pull the camper for her so as long as she can do it safely....then I'll support her completely.
I would like to call her this morning to see how she did all night, but there isn't good phone reception where she's at. We had such bad storms early this morning, but I'm sure she is fine.
