Room For All

[chansen]

A good run.

There is something about the passing of someone who had more time than most and was a good person. Even if you didn't know them, it's worthy of a nod of the head - an acknowledgement of a life well lived. I hope that's accurate.

Oh Nancy., so many thoughts. Thinking of you as you grieve your. Mom.

Your mom was close to my parents age. She witnessed so much: world war 2 , television, cell phones, prime Minister's (good & bad).

May the days ahead be full of stories and shared memories from those who loved her

 

[Mendalla]

Vibes and condolences to you and your family @Nancy.

 

[Carolla]

Oh Nancy ... tender time for you and your family as you honour your mom's life. I hope there is abundant love and laughter in your remembering.

@Nancy sweetest blessings for your Mom's new journey. Thanks be to Godde for the life of a good and faithful servant.

Saw the just past Harvest Moon last night. What a blessing! So orange, so large, so totally harvest-y.

Over the rainbow past the lost Arch*eh? Intuitive stuff ... from the table going round ... matt hewn ... disguised factors ... cause closed psyche cannot deal with the input ... C? It is not all wet ... deep? And well to be looked over by the carrier ...

Those mysterious connections of care as obliterated by those without soul ... innate light? Can't you see it for the materialism? It is related in that verse I raised in another thread or two ... the things I give up to give us Feng Shue ... proper space ... spatially! High fluid ethers ... thin substances ... but hot ... where they rub other spaces ... peculiar reactions ... plasma-like ... red hots ... dogging it along ...

Thank you for your kind words and thoughts. Nursing homes are sometimes not spoken well of. All of the PSWs who worked with mom came to hold her hand, talk to her, and tell us wonderful stories about their time with her. They were unfailingly kind and respectful of mom’s health and dignity. What a beautiful calling they have.

Those who care for the dead know where intellect and wisdom lie ... even though sometimes like boils obscures the reflection in the pool ... witches brew ... bubbly water ...

Why's the Wonderbaker always serve everything warm from the oven. Does she not know the joys of ice cream cake, or cookies from the freezer?

 

[Mendalla]

No one needs or wants cold stuff on a Fall morning in Canada.

English Breakfast tea and kaffecake sounds good.

The staff aren't usually the concern. It's the ownership. PSWs are generally a great bunch and the staff aren't usually any happier with the owners than anyone else. My employer does partnerships with LTC to provide oxygen and other respiratory care in homes and there's some big corporate groups we won't do business with on principle. And some we are happy to. We provide patient-centered care and expect our partners to as well but that's simply not how some of the big LTC chains operate.

The Wonderbaker isn't a "she." You've been informed of this before.

My only experience with PSW's was in retirement homes. But they were a caring, hard-working bunch.
Thinking of you @Nancy during these difficult days.

In all things we depend upon there are exceptional will's ... like Pinocchio's patriarch a carver of wood? Giuseppe in one tradition ... old word for Bill!

How round about ... but we need a little bit to get into the darker pool of intelligence ...

I've worked in those environments and can attest to that.

My condolences for the loss of your Mother, Nancy...it sounds like it was peaceful and that the staff was caring...to you as well as your mother.

Sending comfprtimg thoughts to Nancy.

Good morning! Happy Halloween! Time to rise and shine! Hope everyone is well. It's chilly in this area right now, only +2. Dress code is "warm" at the moment. We meet once again round the Coffee Cart for our time of chat, support, and community building, over tea, coffee, and the productions of our marvelous Wonderbaker. This morning, the Wonderbaker has produced a lovely apple strudel for us to enjoy.
The tea water boils, coffee is freshbrewed, and the strudel is warm from the oven. All is ready, everyone is welcome. Come join the fun!

Good morning. Apple strudel with fresh coffee is a lovely start to a Saturday. Thanks...It must be apple season. I just happened to make apple compote exactly as my mother did, using firm, courtland or spy apples -- peeled and sliced in eigths, sugar to taste and water to cover. They cook uncovered until a light syrup is formed (don't take your eyes off of it!) and the apples are cooked but not too mushy. She sprinkled it with nutmeg while still hot, and served it slightly warm in a glass bowl. Here ya go.
