I haven’t spent much time on PBase lately and I’ve missed viewing and commenting on your photos.
But family matters have taken priority lately. My wife broke her knee in late May. Ordinarily a
person with that injury would convalesce at home with instructions to not bear any weight on
the bad knee for six weeks. However my very intelligent and accomplished wife has been dealing
with the progression of Alzheimer’s for the past five years. Because she is unable to remember
how to properly care for her knee she had to stay in the hospital for over two months. She is
home now and is walking, albeit slowly and carefully. We get daily visits from Home Care
workers, but I am spending most of my time as a care provider.

Occasionally I get a bit overwhelmed and feel like the subject of this photo, but we are
developing new routines and things are getting easier. I have a lot less time for photography,
but obviously family comes first.
