Just love her. That's all you can do. My mom would've been 80 this December had she lived. We were all with her when she passed. I did get to see her feeling good two weeks before she was taken with heart failure from meds gone awry.
She was only 68. BP meds and thyroid meds started together at too high a dose.
Our moms.
Isn't that one of the reasons why we do what we do?
Yeah, I still miss her. (The pain does "ease" over time, though).
It's been 11 years now, but I know she's proud of me.
