picture of my mother

My mom turns 87 in 3 weeks. I came in after nap the other day and the sunlight was streaming in through the window so I grabbed my new camera and took some photos. She had on a pink turtleneck which really looked bad next to her yellow sheets so I made it a B&W.

We are now in the final stages of Alzheimer's, she only knows my dad some of the time and quite often thinks he is her father. She doesn't know any of us kids now. She is very quiet and usually only speaks up when I feed her; she always compliments me on the food!

I love the character lines that have developed. Thanks for looking.
