For those of you asking

Mom a year ago, hard to believe she is now 89.

 Mom is settling into her routine at Independence Village and now knows the times for eating and other activities pretty well. She knows which table she is assigned to for meals and gets around all right, some times using a cane and some times not. 
 The down side is still the lack of memory and confusion as well as paranoia, which is common with this illness. There is good and bad but she is making some friends and enjoying more activities so we are blessed in that respect. Please keep her in your prayers for her to have some happiness in her remaining years.  Ken
