That's a shame. You did all you could, though - your mum would understand and doubtless would have a great old moan about it with you as well ...

Jerseygirl

From what I know about her...I doubt it. Watcha say Frank?

SultanOfSwing

Or maybe not - I was just trying to help him feel better

It's why she named him Frank...."Some Mothers Do Have "Em!"



(sorry Frank, just messing with yer)

Jerseygirl

Frank and I often compare notes about our mothers. Mine was a tough old bird...and his still is. They don't make them like that anymore.

Sounds like my granny (on my mum's side) who'd have been 93 this year if she was still with us. Grannies from that era were just better, IMO.

Sultan, thanks all the comments are cheering me up.

Mother 96, brain of a 30 yr old. She can list 27, sons, DIL's, grandchildren & great grand kids, names & birthdays.
Woman forgets NOTHING & I mean nothing, i'm 61, she still brings up things (NOT in a good way) I did 50+ years ago, or last week.

Has sharp humor, in the ER, she said "Funny I was praying all week, someone would take me out on a trip, I meant shopping not the ER".

She is now testing, the patience of the Assisted living staff, she pulls the emergency cord, like its room service "Can someone make me a cup of tea".
