@deborism, please pardon and forgive my abject cluelessness!

My dear benefactor and guide through this process, Paula @beeyou, helped me understand the significance of your Upvote and generous attention. She explained @curie! All I can say is a genuine, grateful and heartfelt - THANK YOU AND "WOW", from "Ma" and me!

Though I've been thinking since I posted, she would be uncomfortable with all of this ... She would be telling me get off my phone (I Steemit from my phone) and let's go "meet people", "do something"!

Little would she know, the attitude and spirit that fueled her heart and soul, are alive, very well and generously abundant on this amazing platform!

You've created one very happy, still morbidly clueless minnow!

Please let me know what I can do to help! I am eager and willing I just need guidance and pointing in the right direction. Helping and making a difference will always be my driving force, so please let me know how I can help!

Meanwhile, deepest Thank you, @curie, @deborism and most of all Paula @beeyou, without whose help, Ma's story wouldn't have been shared!
