I also lost my dad 23 years ago. You have touched me so deeply that I do not know how to really thank you. Unfortunately given our journey's our paths have crossed yet there is some silver lining and that is that we have connected. I am grateful for this.From the bottom of my heart I am always here for you.

I want you to know you never have to explain to anyone that you are a caregiver. Of course you are a caregiver just like the rest of us and don't ever question it.You are probably closer to your mother's needs then some who may be in the same city. So I just wanted to say that you are a caregiver and a wonderful writer and we all send you our love.<br />CarolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3463278702289836291.post-91878915611995066142016-11-11T09:33:37.624-05:002016-11-11T09:33:37.624-05:00Lisa,

You wrote back to me and I appreciated your kindness as I was struggling to make sense of my own mother's dementia. Truthfully, I've read only a few of your posts in recent years but only because I was living the pain of my father's unexpected passing and the subsequent need to move my mom away from her own home. I was on a rollercoaster of experiences. To make a long story short, my Mom passed away on October 28th. I'm presently on the last few days of my bereavement leave and I found my way back to your blog today. I want to thank you for your honesty, for your openness, and for sharing your experiences and emotions with the world. I have learned much from you and I believe wholeheartedly that you were placed in my path to help me better understand me and this devastating disease. I have grown so much since I last wrote to you. Thank you. <3 Anne www.viewsfromthedock.blogspot.comAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15558780641222059677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3463278702289836291.post-55770104557234079942016-11-02T08:19:24.697-04:002016-11-02T08:19:24.697-04:00Thanks so much Helaine yet as a daughter we know t...Thanks so much Helaine yet as a daughter we know that we all can have our moments.Alzheimer's My Mom My Herohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06521298907696128213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3463278702289836291.post-19721664386262867442016-10-31T11:50:37.146-04:002016-10-31T11:50:37.146-04:00Lisa, no matter hat anybody tells you, the truth i...Lisa, no matter hat anybody tells you, the truth is in your heart.
