Whirlwind

To say that the past couple of months have been a “Whirlwind” is an understatement.

We sold our house in Yucaipa within one week of having it posted. My husband and I then moved temporarily to Palm Springs. The first week of June I flew to Maui and found a condo, we then found ourselves on the buying end instead of being the seller. Concurrently our family was dealing with our mothers ailing health. I am so glad that I got to spend time with her while she was a patient at The Rehabilitation Center in Riverside. My mom knew Jack and I had plans to move to Maui and was really happy for us. However I found myself not wanting to post on social media about our progress from selling our home, shopping for a condo and ultimately moving back to Maui. Our mother was discharged from the Rehabilitation Center on June 24th, where she had been from the beginning of April. She wanted to be in her own home.

Our mothers quality of life was not good, she was more than ready to be with our dad, brothers and sister and other family members whom have passed. I will miss my mother tremendously, I wake up some mornings and the first thing that I think about is ” I need to call my mom” and then I remember that she passed away. Our mother was laid to rest with our father and brother her ashes our in the Urn pictured above…she loved roses.

Today is Friday July 26th, Jack and I will leave for San Diego, stay with a cousin and then fly out tomorrow morning to Maui. Then comes the task of establishing with a new medical team. As a cancer survivor I must be seen by a Oncologist for 10 years….I am only three years out. I will also have to establish with a primary doctor, I can not go back to my previous primary as she has left her practice and is working at an Urgent Care Center. However working in the medical field and going back to MDI, I am well connected and will have not problem finding a doctor.

My car has shipped and is on Maui, husbands truck shipped this week and our small cube container with minimal items is on a ship on its way to Maui!

Aloha and many mahalos for the condolences via FB when I posted of my mothers passing…I did read all of them.
