Thank you Jim,
My parents need family with them.  My mom is in critical condition and will 
have a long convalescence.  My dad is recovering from bypass surgery.  They 
will need medical and family help.  I'm the 'spinster' with itchy feet.  I 
didn't plan on moving for another two years but my mother almost died on 
Christmas.  It's very important to have family and familiar surroundings for 
older people as you well know.  North Carolina is their home.  I also need 
to be with them.  My other sisters for one reason or another can't relocate. 
  I can tho it means dropping all the very hard work I've done here to build 
a network.  I plan on finding a support group - others taking care of 
parents - and
find some workshops for caretakers.  Any suggestions are more than welcome!
Thanks, Carol
