For some, the last opportunity to visit loved ones will be behind glass.
I felt giddy, with a mild adrenaline rush that sometimes accompanies going rogue.
But that nursing home where my 90-year-old mother, Marcella, has lived for three years shut down all visitation about three weeks ago. It's hard to see her this way when I always knew her as a vibrant and brilliant woman, one of the first women to run a paint-contracting company in Detroit in the 1960s. Her company painted the interiors of many landmark buildings downtown.The nurse called my cell and handed mom the phone so we could talk while looking at each other through the glass, a bit like how prison visitations are portrayed on TV.
My mom and I have always been close, almost best friends. But as a single woman in a busy career with a house to maintain and three pets to care for all on my own, my personal time is sparse. Like many people, I often feel overwhelmed.
