Strange Days Be Comin'

So.. my mom calls me yesterday to let me know she's going in for a knee replacement Tuesday. She also wanted to let me know in no uncertain terms that she has absolutely no desire to go through life as a vegetable, should something go wrong.

Oh man.. Mom, neither do I. This is one of those times when I am glad to be blessed with a huge family. We talk; we can leave tracks for each other and be the repository of this sort of information for each other.

For some reason, I flashed on the predicament of the solo flyer through life. No family, few friends - who does he tell? With whom does she leave this sort of critical information?



I think this will be a topic in the Quiet Conversation Forums very soon. I'd like to hear opinions.
