@gloaming , I'm missing something, the marbles? It's strange, because when I read this, I have a deja vu feeling. Something I never get.

As for luck involved in leaving this life, I don't know if there is such a thing.

Mom is home from the hospital and trying to balance her water pill with what she takes into her body. No luck there. I think she will tire of this challenge. My wife just prepared some things she likes. I think she'll eat it and feel better for a bit but she now knows she has heart failure.
