Welcome. Around here we discuss books, history, current events, home life, and other things. Politely. (And mostly with good cheer.) The idea is to share information and ideas, and help each other out a bit when we can.
How thoughtful of you to link, and I so appreciate your response to this. I find I can't get past this visit. I went expecting to honor her, as the Scriptures say, and expecting her not to know me. I didn't expect to fall in love with the woman she is now, and to miss her this much after I left. Although I defend life and would challenge anyone who doesn't, I think I subconsciously was valuing a person more if they had all their cognitive ability, though it disturbs me to admit that - as though "she doesn't know anyone anymore" somehow is the end of everything. It isn't. I love who she was, and I love who she is now. Again, thanks!
