94 good years

 

My wife's grandmother died a few days ago after 94 years. Living that long is something everyone should hope for. I'm sure it was no accident. All of this on the eve of another Mothers Day. She was always kind to us. Being a grandmother is the reward for surviving motherhood? or payback to kids?

 

With Mothers Day upon us, I think of my mom who died of a brain tumor a number of years ago. My daughter was given her name. Our mother used to make my sister and I watch the movie about a kid growing up who was mean to her mother. Imitation of Life. I still remember that.

 

My wife, who has shown great motherly qualities, and likes this day especialy allot. I know she appreciates her mother and all the things that she put her through growing up . Most kids don't understand the appreciation of this day until they experience thier own kids growing . I guess that's part of life that one has to experience. It just can't be explained.

 

It's crappy that I can't appriate these days, like I should. That's when I know MS affects others besides me.

 

Father's Day soon?
