My father, my angel
Woman's World
|August 04, 2025
Woman's World reader Pamela Duffey needed reassurance that her parents were okay after they passed. So her dad sent her a sign. She writes:
-
As an only child, I was taking care of both my parents in their later years, starting in 2006 and then full-time in July 2022. My dad was diagnosed with brain cancer at age 91 and my mom had just turned 90 and was becoming increasingly forgetful.
The doctors said Dad had no chance of survival and pushed hard for hospice. Dad wanted to try, so we did. He lived a very hard six months before passing away in January 2023.
It was difficult because I was caring for them at their house. I lived four miles away but had three boys in their late teens and early 20s at home.
During this time, I was working full-time, but thankfully my supportive husband and sons helped out often.

The Mary Tyler Moore SHOW
From That Girl in the 1960s to Ally McBeal in the 1990s to Sex and the City in the 2000s, television has long reflected the shifting image of independent women. Yet the true game-changer came in 1970, when The Mary Tyler Moore Show introduced Mary Richards—30, single, stylish and making her way in a newsroom full of men. Rather than being someone’s wife or daughter, she was the star, and she changed television forever. Join us for a look back at rare behind-the-scenes photos of the groundbreaking show as we celebrate its 55th anniversary.

Happy money, happy holidays
The holidays are here (yay!), and with them comes both joy and, let's be honest, stress. For many of us, the shopping lists, entertaining costs or the ache of an empty chair at the table can dim the sparkle of the season. If that's you, please accept my wishes that the days land lightly.
