Q:  My elder father has been set up to go to a nursing home after a surgery. Is this really necessary? My mother is freaking out! A:  When elder parents have been together for decades, an illness or surgery can split them up and the healing process stops.  The comfort of being together and the compassionate care they receive from each other may be the only life line they have.  While many insurance plans will insist that an elder go to a facility for extended care, it does not have to be the right answer for your family.  If there…

In the past decade, I would always post pictures of the clouds and the pictures they would reflect. I haven’t been posting for quite awhile.

Heat and humidity to return. So here is a profound…
