@nannybb Thank you for the note. When I look back I see this must have been written about 3 years ago, and I'm still alive! No one quite knows why, but I'll take it. It's touching to hear how you were able to care for your parents. There is so much uncertainty in life and yet love and connections do endure.

@mir123 Three years ago? Amazing. Thank you for your response. It was not difficult to care for my parents, in that, I have a medical background and have been a professional nanny for years. It felt like with my mother, especially, we had switched roles. Not that I felt like I had become HER mother, but that I could feel the reversal happening slowly as her dependency increased. My older brother hated all things hospital. Which is funny, because he married a doctor. My sister I think just could not face the fact mom was dying. I am finding out how much it affected my son. Each person has their own way of moving through the process.
I would love to hear more about your original diagnosis if you don't mind sharing. Thanks again. Blessings.💕
