something to watch

My Mom has a blog!

Mom is a knitter and a weaver of Navaho Rugs. She is trained in massage therapy, zero balancing, and other mind-body techniques I don't know the proper names for (I should remedy that). She is a practicing bhuddist and makes a mean frozen chocolate mousse. My Mom travels with her awesome partner of many years, and loves the annual sailing trip in the Carribean. She loves opera, good books, and anything yummy to eat. She is definitely an extrovert and has a flair for the dramatic--she has spent many hours in and around theatrical productions of all sorts.

And she is a polio survivor.

I've been encouraging my mom to get a blog for a while now, because she has a great gift for communication, and she works so hard to live with the results of her childhood disease. We don't hear much about polio these days, because it is supposedly eradicated. Adults who survived childhood polio face a myriad of trials as they age. Often they experience impaired mobility and lots of pain. I know there are others out there who can benefit from my mother's knowledge and experience. I am very proud of her for setting sail into the blogging world.

So please, if you have a chance, watch her site and leave a friendly comment if you see something that appeals to you. And if you know of other polio survivors, please pass the word to them.

I love you Mom!
