I began to wonder why I was feeling grief in anticipation of her eventual passing. “Anticipatory grief,” I thought, must be a new concept.

I realized that my career is way off balance and that I have been taken for granted by many people but more importantly I realized that I need to enjoy the moment because you never know when it will be your last.

I’m scared enough living in this post-9-11 world and being bombarded from all sides by the latest frightful something-or-other TV warns us about. So I just don’t worry about it…Que sera sera.

The sense of violation felt can only be appreciated if you are the victim. You don’t want to get there, and I’m going to help you minimize this from ever occurring should you need homecare assistance.
