Daddy continues to fade Mood
Wednesday, July 23, 2008 | An Anxious story

July 23, 2008 -- I spent the weekend with my parents and Daddy has failed a lot since I was there last. He is under hospice care which appears to be good but he does not like having to depend on others and Mama does not like having people in her house.  So it was a stressful weekend.

 

Since nobody reads this, I will leave it there.

    hey sweet woman. I am so sorry you are going through this with your Dad. I lost my dad 12 years ago so I know what that is like. we are getting to that age, you and I , where we are going to be burying our parents. It is not a pleasant thing to look forward to. I am praying for you tonite. please do not think that people dont care. most of the time no one reads my journal unless I ask them to. i love you... if you need to talk. message me. xxxxx have a better nite. nancy

    Thanks Nancy -- I came to this site to get support for the long haul, and it irks me that I dont get much; but that too is a function of getting older I guess. Grumpy old lady that I am becoming. Well, as my sainted Southern Granny observed, we must cut our coat to fit our cloth.

    Thanks for your support. It means more than you know.
