For example, on the cover is a
view of Elgin Cathedral ruins,
gracious and etherol against its
quiet park land, It was built in
1224, rebuilt on a grander scale
after a fire in 1270, and once
again in 1390 to fall victim to the
flames of the Earl of Buchan,
known as the ‘Wolf of Bade-
nach’, who had a score to settle
with the bishop of Moray. For
good measure, he also burned
Pluscarden Abbey, six miles out
of the town.

Three years ago we took a taxi
and visited this most northerly
Benedictine monastery as guests
of the then Father Abbot Alfred
and presented him with a borscht
ladle donated by Pete Oglow on
behalf of the citizens of Castlegar.

I still correspond with Abbot
\lfred and hope that I may meet

by a community of monks, the
only Benedictines in the world
permitted to wear white habits,
They have already made exten-
sive restorations on the church
and built guest houses for both
men and women visitors.

On our return to Elgin to catch
the train to Aberdeen we called,
at the ion of the Abbot, at
the monastery of the Sister of
Mercy where we met Sister Mary
Clare with whom I also corre-
spond. She, it turned out, has a
brother and sister-in-law in

“Mom,

Caring for a sick child at home
is quite a challenge for parents.
Kids usually act tired, cranky or
want to be held a lot when they
don’t feel well. Parents are called
on to give extra time and to
change normal routines to meet
these demands. There may be
extra expenses for alternative
child care arrangements and
medicines. Everything from
meals to bedtimes may need to be
adjusted in some way.

It is important for parents to

on strong, successful families
show that they cope best by focus-
ing on the positive aspects of a
negative situation. For example, if
a child is to stay calm and in bed
for a while, this may provide the
much-needed chance for parents

other are the kinds of things that
frequently get lost in the shuffle of
normal daily routines.

Another thing to keep in mind
is to ask for help when you need
it. The fear of imposing on others
often keeps us from requesting
assistance, but many people are
flattered when asked to help.

Kids are non-divorceable

In an effort to reach out to fam-

One way to keep spirits up
when a family member is sick is
to make and give some T.L.C.

Coupons. Write some brief,
encouraging notes on bright
paper and quietly leave them in
places ‘the patient’ is sure to
notice. Try slipping one in his
slipper, in her robe pocket or on
the bathroom mirror. It is amaz-
ing how much joy an unexpected
“I love you!” or “Thinking of
you!” note can bring. You can
also design coupons to be
“redeemed” when needed. Try
making coupons redeemable for:
