Got the Bad news yeaterday regarding my step mother. The diagnosis is conjestive heart failure and her condition will not get any better. Looks like we will have to put her in to assisted living. The good thing is she can be at the same facility where my Dad is and they will be able to see each other on a regular basis. I have a mountain of paper to go through here since records have not been attended to for several years. The shreader has been working overtime. My dad was the kind of person who kept everything, I think I may have shreaded the first check he ever wrote. My brother is comming in tonight then tomorrow we plan to get the old folks to sign Durable power of Attorney over to us so we can act in their best interest.

With any luck Lorraine and I can get back to FL sometime this week.
