Nothing seems to help with the angst we feel about what's best for the ones we love though. It hardly seems fair that life should take such a turn just when people seem to be getting the hang of living it. Maybe one day we'll all know the reasons why. We just have to love each other through it all, I guess.<BR/>Anyhow, I'm truly here to listen, if you need an ear.<BR/>Take care.Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147259175811183482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10714961.post-63249171331724812342007-06-12T21:08:00.000-05:002007-06-12T21:08:00.000-05:00my neighbor Fran has dementia and is on a medicati...my neighbor Fran has dementia and is on a medication that helps slow down her memory loss and confusion.

She may not be able to voice it to you but I'm sure she appreciates all you do for her. It may be on some level that isn't visible but it's there.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10084823218319628822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10714961.post-65889175329577629262007-06-12T12:26:00.000-05:002007-06-12T12:26:00.000-05:00I absolutely understand how you feel Rosa...the gu...I absolutely understand how you feel Rosa...the guilt that comes with times you feel annoyed and then all the worry. I was never prepared to be my parents parent and yet it was a role I had to take on. You need to have moments you can vent either the frustration or the worry or both!<BR/><BR/>Getting a new kitty will be fun, you're so right about a home needs a cat! Your nieces visit will be a joy!<BR/><BR/>I hope you're having a better day today!<BR/>XOXOLisa Oceandreamer Swifkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10447207923190618328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10714961.post-1404980951059497562007-06-12T10:15:00.000-05:002007-06-12T10:15:00.000-05:00Dave is a very cute cat!

It IS a mixture of fear and annoyance. It can get very frustrating because our dear ones were once vibrant and coherent. As they change it becomes more frightening and frustrating.

He is in a hospice home, but we have no idea how long he has. It has been hell. I feel your pain.Farmgirl Cynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06596602094024708943noreply@blogger.com
