I lost my dad four years ago after my parents’ 63rd anniversary. To say that they were each other’s soulmates was an understatement. They were each other’s best friend.

My mom started having heart issues 16 months ago and arthritis in her right hip. This has made her housebound since January 2021. I have gone in several times a week to do any maintenance on her house and bring groceries and anything else she needs.

She went through electric cardioversion that January and then it returned in November 2021, but thankfully was corrected with medicines. She went through total hip replacement a few months ago hoping to go back to being mobile and able to leave the house.

But before that could happen as of today, she is back with A fib and having to go through another electric cardioversion on Friday. I want her to have hope even at 87 and be able to have a normal existence and enjoy getting out and seeing my daughter and husband (her granddaughter) again. She deserves so much more than this.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Shari Alhadeff
