My Mother

Hello guys.

I haven't been around a lot lately due to taking care of my mother, after a long battle with Alzheimer's/ Dementia she was called home last Monday. I kept my promise to her, with a ton of help from my wonderful wife, although tough to do at times and never put her in a assisted living home. She passed with me by her side quietly after suffering a stroke a couple weeks ago. I am relieved that her suffering  and confusion are finally over.

  This disease that took my mother away years before she passed is an awful thing for anyone to have to go thru, and if anyone of you are caring for a loved one with this disease just know you are not alone out there.  If you need to talk to someone who will understand what you are going thru and have no judgement at all, or if you just need to vent please dont hesitate to contact me.

Thank you first off. You and your wife are saints. I know kind of what you went through as my wife and I took care of my quad son for his last 2 years on this earth and I made him a promise when the time came he would leave this world in his own room in his own home surrounded by everything familiar to him and as hard as it was watching him slowly go down hill I stood firm my promise to him. You are saints for going through all that you both did rather than just putting her is strange surroundings but keeping her at home. I am terribly sorry for your loss and she is at peace and she left surrounded by loved ones.

My condolences and prayers. Lost my father in law in March. Watching him no longer know what was going on was one of the most difficult things I have ever experienced.  Sorry for your loss but thankful your mom is no longer suffering and is eternally home.
