Good progress on the PSMF outcome. Good working day. Took Lauren to see her mom, then to work, then worked remote from SRC with her until 1pm. It's hard and getting harder to balance the emotions that go along with this whole thing. She's showing a bit more willingness to share her fears. Kathy learned today that she doesn't qualify for disability because she didn't pay into it for the past 5 years. Had she worked full time she'd be covered and now her care is at the cost of he retirement funds, and the kids inheritance. What a nightmare. I'm wrestling with it all. Next week will be tough – infusion then the move to hospice. I don't know how that will go, but it's on me, at least in person, to be her support. Kathy will do what she can but she's also less direct. Took Jen to DCG for appetizers and drinks. We needed that time. Weekend ahead will hopefully be peaceful and I have a checklist of things to tackle that I hope to get through including a visit to my mom, garage reorg at Matson, wine inventory, and a few errands.
