... and thanks to everyone who has posted here.

My mom's passing is not a time for mourning, but celebration. Having slipped into dementia years ago, she wound up being a prisoner of her own mind.

Now she is free - her mind again as sharp as it was when she raised three daughters on her own, independent in a time when such behaviour in a woman was unique and remarkable.

And now that she is returned to her full mental faculties in the afterlife, she no doubt wonders why her daughter spends so much time on this DU thingy, and is amazed that her erstwhile child has garnered so many incredible people as friends along the way.

Thanks to all of you - your posts are bookmarked in my soul for all eternity.
