    I wasn't going to tell anyone this but many of you know already. My Mother has had health problems for quite some time now. About 3 years ago she lost her job and was un able to handle things at her home. So I started paying all of her mortgage and bills to keep things going for her. She then got a job and worked for about 2 years, handled things herself for the most part. Was doing great. Then in May, she learned that her job was moving to Pennsylvania and that she would be without work again. Her health is worse now than it was the other time, she is 60 years old. So I reluctantly decided that I would move back down to her place and handle things for a while. I have been here since July 1st. It is really tough sometimes but I feel as though I am doing the right thing. I haven't lived with her for at least 15 years.
