I know what you mean about wondering how long your mother is going to be around. My mother has now managed to live longer than anyone else in the family, and although she's doing well now, I can't help wondering how long that will last.

I was lucky enough that my mother decided to stop driving on her own - maybe she could have gone on for a little longer, but at least I don't have to worry about having the talk with her that I was dreading. She's lucky enough to have a group of friends who are willing to drive her around, but I'm trying to do my fair share of driving as well. (I haven't taken her bra shopping yet, though. But I suppose that'll happen eventually.)

The bra shopping never happened, which I see as fortunate, although mum might have other ideas. But she's not happy about not having a car, not at all. It's not like she goes many places, but most of her friends aren't in a position to dive her around and public transport is not her thing. That leaves taxis and even though she's got a card that gives her half price fares (and it only takes about ten minutes to drive anywhere in the old home town so she never pays more than five or six dollars), she still whines about it. Gah, we cannot win!
