I stumbled...I was touched by this post Lisa Marie. I stumbled back onto blogspot after several years away to start a Walt Disney World Tips Blog and noticed I was following your blog. I remember cracking up in the past when reading the humerous way you describe life events and was surprised by the amount of time that had passed between your latest posts. Tammy and I had just got back from taking my parents on a one week Walt Disney World trip. My Dad is 80 and mom is 77, so I am having a similar role reversal with them like you described in your post. They were always taking care of me and providing the opportunities for great memories and now I have began to take on that role. My parents are still very active for their age but over the past year they have slowed down a significant amount. More and more doctor's visits, procedures and a bad fall from my mother that required surgery to her shoulder and permanent range of motion loss to her right arm. My parents always seemed like they would be around forever and now their mortality often weighs on my mind. Each memory I have with them these days is priceless to me and held in high esteem and the phone calls I always took for granted are now anxiously answered and given my full attention. As we made the long walks around the Disney parks and resorts I would regularly stop and ask my mom if we needed to stop or slow down and we often did just that. I just wanted you to know that I can relate to your experience of wanting your parents to see you as a grown up and realizing that you can now give them the support that they once gave you. I hope you and Lil Man are doing well and life has treated you fairly.Doug Stantonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11721009749929892672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1159562773854868815.post-2876099313665779802013-07-14T18:24:49.499-07:002013-07-14T18:24:49.499-07:00;-);-)Phyllis Munrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05468723795168003319noreply@blogger.com
