Linda,
...It is good to see you posting here again. It is hard to understand how someone could become a veterinarian and still be phobic about snakes.
...It sounds like you are doing the right things in life and they are keeping you VERY busy. My dad is declining and has had hospice care for almost a year. My mother wants to keep him at home as long as possible. For several months my siblings and I were taking turns having one of us there 24/7 to help her with him. His hospice care nurses and aides have been visiting more often recently and so we are no longer needed there full time. I have still been going down to Florida to spend time with them quite a bit. My older brother and younger sister covered this last week while my younger brother and I took our wives to Glacier National Park in Montana. We had a great time and hiked over 80 miles.
