@secretwhitepop- It's so difficult and heartbreaking to have to take care of the people who took care of us. Don't you think? Cleanliness is so important to help stave off infections too. When I took care of my mom, I had help, she was bathed everyday that she could get out of bed. She had Parkinson. Feeling good after doing all that for your mom must make you feel so good! Good for you.
Do you have other siblings that help you? Do you have a good relationship with your mom?
Why were you crying? My mom and I never really had a great relationship. But I never have been sorry that I helped take care of her.

Hi there! Mostly I cry when I first see her because when she is sad it breaks my heart. Also, I haven’t been the happiest or strongest person this past year after my fathers passing. I think I’m still in denial. Frozen in time. And mom misses the love of her life too. So, it’s hard to stay upbeat. And I want her to be more cared for so that when I visit we can just goof around. And I won’t worry that there’s pee in her 🙂

Yes, I agree about hygiene. She is sporting a broken tooth! My brother is doing a great job in caring for her everyday, but we are all so so busy.

Get this, though, I am now at my mother in laws house and am at peace. I called mom to check in and she is listening to the Pope. All is well. I am at peace.
