We have what we call 'The old nurses club' Most of us are either retired or on disability, only a couple of them still working. But we are still 'old' according to the age of most nurses. We try to meet frequently just to catch up and have fun. One of the ladies is just the most terrific cook on the face of the earth. She is married to a research pharmacist who happened to get early onset Parkinson's many years ago. So we have seen him deteriorate through the years. But he would still come to the table as we were getting ready to eat and give the prayer. We live in Evansville, in. She has a daughter in Indy and two in Nashville so they bought a house down there. She will finally get some help in caring for her dear husband. But we are sorry to see her leave. She was the glue that kept us together. We tried to alternate homes but we always ventured back to her home. When we would go out to a restaurant you can't stay long and only a few would show up. We will miss you Carolyn
