But instead of confining herself to a hospital bed for what could be her last stay, Norma--newly widowed after nearly seven decades of marriage--rose to her full height of five feet and told her doctor, 'I'm ninety years old. I'm hitting the road.' Packing what she needed, Norma took off on an unforgettable cross-country journey with three professional nomads--her retired son Tim, his wife Ramie, and their standard poodle Ringo--in a thirty-six-foot RV."-- Tim Bauerschmidt, Ramie Liddle. n-us--- Bauerschmidt, Norma 1925-2016 Travel United States Bauerschmidt, Tim Travel United States Liddle, Ramie Travel United States Terminally ill Biography Mothers and sons Families Travel United States Recreational vehicles United States Older women United States Biography Cancer Patients United States Biography Quality of life Philosophy Travel Psychological aspects United States Description and travel E169.Z83 B38 2017 917.304/932 9780062664327 2017019317 170421 20190501235547.0 956624751
