My mom is here visiting. This trip was planned pre-diagnosis, so it’s all about fun, fun, fun! Took her to Cosmos Friday for a much needed color, cut and style. Going to Scottsdale Fashion Square today. We’re just hanging out, watching Korean television shows (thanks Grace, for the DVDs!) and eating home cooked Korean food.

Mom’s sight and hearing are going. She is due for new glasses, “Everything is fuzzy” she complains. Even when she DOES use her hearing aids, she can’t seem to hear that well. “Maybe I need to turn volume up,” she declares. YES, do that! We were in the kitchen and I said, “My gecko is getting fat.” She answered, “You are not fat. You are beautiful.” “Mom, I said my gecko is getting fat.” “Just perfect, you. You are perfect.”
