Mother’s Day is this weekend and yes, I’m still in South Carolina on the beautiful 12-mile island, Hilton Head. For those of you who have been following my story, I am still rehabilitating from a fall I took the first week we arrived (early March). I have graduated from four days a week of in-house therapy to one day a week and am now hobbling along half the time with a cane and the other half with my deluxe-edition rolling walker. This is a state-of-the-art model complete with hand brakes, a seat with a lift-up secret compartment for lip balm, etc. and a bonus … a cup holder. Hello, 5 o’clock cocktails! The silver lining is that where I am here in S.C. was my mother’s empty-nester forever home; I always enjoy being here and reminisce about all the fun times we had visiting here and of course, while here, even using a walker, I enjoy making her tried-and-true comfort foods.
