About Me
I teach computer though not much lately due to health...the only thing that gets me through right now is my sense of humor. Trying really hard to lose this wweight! On the good days, I give it my all and on the bad I do the best I can...
Interests
Love crafts and knit for some charity groups online. I like to read especially when the weather is warm I spend hours on my porch with a book. Spend way too much time on the computer but I love it. Also like to go for walks. Like puzzles, getting into cooking more and watching tv.

Open Bereavement
softrose hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Open Caregivers
I am 55 yrs old. My mother is has Alzheimers and in a wheel chair. My brother had her put in an assisted living facility and is the guardian but I take care of her needs and spend time with her. It has been a long haul and she has almost died a few times already. Emotionally it is eating at me and making me crazy. It has changed my life in many ways and I am simply trying to hold my own.
