A near death experience

Yes, it is just as it sounds. Mom and I were watching tv tonight after dinner. Becky had just called to see how mom was doing when all of a sudden Mom seemed be having a seizure. Her eyes were fixed on the ceiling and she didn't respond to me at all. I was calling her name, yelling for Scott and tried to calmly tell Becky I would call her right back. I know this is coming, but I wasn't ready for it right then, not so sudden. As we wheeled her to the bedroom and laid her on the bed, I was sure she was going. Even Scott said it looked like she was leaving us. Her sweet face was so white. But once we got her in bed she responded better. I tucked her in and just rubbed her for awhile. She was able to say a few words, and she started crying. I, of course, was already sobbing. Now that I have had a trial run, I will try to be more calm when she goes. I will try to make her last moments here peaceful and quiet. Something like newborn babies birthing into a pool of warm,

Sundance: movies, music and more

I am home after the last weekend at Sundance and saw a few more good movies.  I'll add them to the list.    I had a great time talking movies with so many people.  Sue, Carly and I have been having a great time.   I spent the first few nights up there just hanging out with them, since I didn't actually have to work until late Sunday night.   So here are a few of my favorite movies.......so far: Prom Night in Mississippi- a documentary about a school in Miss. that still has segregated proms.  Morgan Freeman offered to pay for the prom if they would have just one.  Who would have thought that 1 1/2 hours of listening to high schoolers talk could be so entertaining.  I really liked it. Rough Aunties - a documentary about a group of women in South Africa that work for a nonprofit organization that counsels sexually abused children and works to bring their abusers to justice.  But mostly it was a film how these women strengthen and support each other in tragic situations.  And two

Off to the MTC with Elder Nicolas Lockhart

This has been a wonderful week with the Lockharts here. Tuesday Sue, Clint, Nick and I went up to Salt Lake to the Draper Temple Open House. Nick has wanted to go in to as many temples as he could before he leaves on his mission, so we took in that one as well. It is a beautiful building, of course. Most notable was the chandelier in the celestial room. Wow! We called Mom to tell her we were on our way to pick her up, but she was back to sleep and still in bed. She was up and ready quickly and we hurried to the Salt Lake Temple for the 2:00 session. Here's a little something to remember, Mom doesn't need to go to the temple anymore. She couldn't remember any names, even hers. All she managed to pay attention to was Nick. "Oh, there's that cute Nick. He's such a great young man." True enough, but she kept saying it over and over, and over and over. She paid absolutely no attention to the session at all. She wasn't even bothered by not being able to rem
