      I'm a Homemaker 69 years old - Married to Jim for 50 years - 4 children --8 grandchildren. Diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis 3 years ago. I'm on oxygen at night, and sometimes during the day. Not as active as I used to be which makes me sad.

      Thank you for thinking of me on Mothers Day. Mama sent me a cute *from the cat* Mothers Day card, and when i phoned her I said Eloise wants you to know that she would have picked that very card if she had not bee too busy keeping an eye on the squirrels out front. The girls made sure she had a lovely Mothers Day and that was most important. To add to my burden I have lost my job, but I am well fixed for now and have some prospects. I hope your Mothers Day was good too. Bless you.
