Hard to believe it's been a full year since coming to Florida.
Mom is worse off than when I got here but not as bad as she would be without the meds and attention. There is no way my brother could both work and keep an eye on her by himself. The Exelon patches seem to be working for the most part, although they are--at best--a holding action. Her physical strength has also improved somewhat. She definitely wants to do more and sometimes does.
The weather has run its full cycle and we are back in the dry season. Summer was not as bad as I imagined it would be but this time of year is glorious. Cool, dry, clear starry nights in the low sixties/upper fifties and warm, dry sunny days in the low eighties. Mom and I sit in the lanai and watch birds and butterflies and the breeze blowing through palm fronds. This is what it's all about.
The only thing missing is mountains. This place is sooo flat!
