A visit from Ana

The woman on the right is Ana, who mum refers to as her "nearly step sister." If I've got the story right, Ana's mother was courted by Mum's dad after he left Nana Mote. They met in Ottawa by the most unlikely and unrelated of chances.






Mum is, as seems customary these days, cheery but losing more mobility. Brushing her teeth wipes her out now she says.

Jane arrived safely last night. She's been in already and we missed her. Shell be coming by the apartment for dinner tonight.
