Lou Piniella is proof sons will do what’s right

My brother wanted to dump my parents into assisted living against their wishes. They wanted to die at home, not in a nursing home. He said that they should “be glad they had 3 daughters because if they had 3 sons, the sons would have forced them into assisted living months ago”.  

My husband cringed when he heard that because he would not do that to his mother and we felt my deceased brother would not be so adamant that they needed to be forced out of their home either.

Days after Mom’s death, he bullied Dad into assisted living. He said he was afraid dad would hurt himself – he was more worried Dad would damange the house and make it harder to sell, the greedy bastard that he is.

Oh how I wish Lou were my brother. 🙂

Miss me but let me go

When I come to the end of the road

And the sun has sent for me,

I want no rites in a gloom filled room

Why cry for a soul set free.

Miss me a little but not too long,

And not with your head bowed low.

Remember the love that once we shared.

Miss me but let me go.

For this is a journey that we all must take,

And each must go alone.

It’s all part of the master plan,

A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick of heart

Go to the friends you know,

And bury your sorrow in doing good deeds

Miss me but let me go.
