My mom was released from the hospital this morning yesterday morning (I don't even know what day it is!), and is spending the night at our house. Who knew the day would come that I would be up in the middle of the night counting her sleeping breaths just as I count my children's?

I talk about my life anyway because if, on the one hand,
hardly anything could be less important, on the other hand,
hardly anything could be more important.
My story is important not because it is mine, God knows,
but because if I tell it anything like right, the chances are
you will recognize that in many ways it is also yours.
Maybe nothing is more important than that we keep track, you and I,
of these stories of who we are and where we have come from
and the people we have met along the way
because it is precisely through these stories in all their particularity,
as I have long believed and often said, that God makes himself known
to each of us most powerfully and personally.

So glad she is with you - and she will have such great care! Saying prayers for you all!
You are a hard one to find on Facebook! Are you listed under your maiden name or something? It's probably easier if you send me a friend request. Look up Tara Tichner. I'm the only one! :)
I am glad your mom is with you! I just read the previous comment about facebook, find me and we can be friends too!
Oh girl - bless your heart. I know you're taking good care of her. Hang tight.
I am glad everything is ok. That would be weird and I am sure my day is coming.
I am so glad and thankful that she is doing better - I know it's hard when life twists around and we take care of our moms - remember to take care of you so you can take care of others!
