^This. My mother's got dementia now, Dad's not doing the best trying to care for Mom: and they're back in NY. My siblings are far away as well. No time or $$$ to travel, so it's Christmas in the Rockies again this year.
I know how it is.
Mom is a bit sad this year since we can't go place a wreath or flowers on Dad's grave who is buried in NY.
We'll make best with the family we have and pray for those who are no longer around.
