I just wanted to give a quick update on Mom. She is doing really great...the medicine that made her shaky is getting better. She takes it at night before she goes to bed and sleeps through the bad parts.
We had a big scare on Thursday...I was driving home listening to the news on the radio and they said that Alton NH looked like a war zone on Route 28. Mom and Dad live on Route 28A about 7 miles up the road from the war zone.
NH had a tornado hit and it created quite a bit of damage along the way. Thankfully Mom & Dad are fine...they didn't have any of the reported damage. My heart goes out to all who suffered a loss...there were some fatalities and over 200 homes that were destroyed.

Some Day We Will Have You Home
I didn't give you the gift of life, but in my heart I know. The love I feel is deep and real, as if it had been so. For us to have each other is like a dream come true! No, I didn't give you the gift of life, life gave me the gift of you.
