    My mother passed a year ago from complications of alzheimer's. We did at-home 24 hour for a long time. One of my sisters spent 4 nights a week with her. My mother loved all things pink, warm & fuzzy. She had these 'awful' pj's that she always wanted to wear; we even found a matching pair for my sister. That's what you see as the lining of the purse. The buttons are from my stash, my mother's & my sister's.
