Rudi – I share your pain regarding your mother (and the crash too). I just sent mine back to Florida after her visit to see new great-grand babies. She has seriously diminished capabilites, both physical and mental, and refuses to acknowledge in any constructive way. Hang in there – you have lots of company.

Be of good cheer. You are alive and healthy and as someone whose mom died in their arms at the age of 10, at least your mom got to finish raising you (and she did a pretty good job) and you get to show her what a great adult you turned out to be. You are an amazing cyclist and a day or two without spinning will not kill you. I don’t blame you for being grumpy. Go ahead and grump. Then just like you did when you crashed, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and go hug your mom. By the way, as someone who still rides the Pedalers C rides, I envy your stamina. Maybe one day… Hang in there Rudy. You are admirable. Don’t forget it.

Hang in there. Parent child relationship is always tricky — especially when the child has to take the parent’s role and vice versa. This too will pass, and you will look back and miss it. Really! I know it is hard to “enjoy” right now, but mothers would not be such trials if they did not so love their children.

“There is no owner’s manual for dealing with family matters, no matter how big or small.”

IF ONLY!!

I hope that your spirits and emotions can recover soon – I know that it was tough for you over there. *HUGS* Stock up on cat snuggles – those help!

I posted a comment on the NYT website about cyclists being threatened by gun-wielding drivers. Someone responded that the only solution is for me to start practicing concealed carry.
