Candle Story for Betty Cooper
trying hard made this candle.
I cared for my Parents for over 10 years. My Dad Tom developed Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus and declined very Rapidly after a slower process. He died 6 months after needing to be put in an Memory Loss wing because my Mother was developing dementia issues as well. She was diagnosed about 6 months after Dad's Death and has recently passed away after spending almost 2 years in another Memory care place. I have been making the 5+ drive down and back for more than 6 years and in August Mom succumbed to the aftermath of a fall. I light the candle for My Mom, Betty, My Dad Tom, my brother, who was unable/or willing to help, and me.
