A lot to think about there, and well written of course. How difficult to live with great skill, humbly and kindly. Rhiannon

I can only say, how compassionate and caring the staff are where my father-in-law is. (and it is just a basic nursing home, largely council funded, they have recently introduced a very minimal top-up and of course there is always means testing)....

Your collection of images in the early part of this is breathtaking as usual, and displays your noticing eye and clarity of putting the images into words succinctly for others.

… but as you said, it is the space between that is full of good memories. Here the beginning, so beautifully described, and such pleasure, and seen now as the beginning of a full life, despite all the hardships, and the agony of parting. Rhiannon
