Laugh when you can

I read Phil Callaway's article in September and my heart goes out to his family. I watched my mother slowly deteriorate for nearly 11 years after my dad died and it was the hardest thing I have done in my adult years. My mother, my best friend for years, didn't remember who I was and at the end while I held her hand I prayed that she knew it was me with her.
I can only tell you to laugh when you can, cry when you must, hold onto the memories — the memories comfort — and pray for strength to help you over the next while. May God bless you all during this difficult time.
