Since joining this group I have had my eyes opened, my heart softened, my mind made wiser and my soul uplifted!! It just don't get more blessed than that!! ;~)) Love all you strong, beautiful, wonderful, crazy folks on here!!!!!
You spoke the truth so beautifully. Today would have been a crazy-not-know-what-to-do day, except for my wonderful daughter who lives with us. When I got to my end, then she just steped in and changed the scene from bad to fun. What an angel. I have decided, truly, that one person cannot do this job alone. It is better that two work together...better for the caregivers and the patient. My husband started getting fiesty, then he just eased up while explaining to my daughter and all went well for the rest of the day. Thanks to God and to all of you wonderful people who give us wisdom and strength. Tyler

Tizzy, Gat & all the many others that have already placed their loved ones, it's so important to see that the love, caring, concern and involvement continue but just change - like everything else with this disease. I know for me the time will come and I will follow your beautiful example and know in my heart it will be okay. Now I cry...
