The last few years, before her dementia diagnosis and stroke, were especially hard. She became involved with a man 20 years her junior who took advantage of her. She would not listen to any of her six children. He turned her against us and she became very paranoid. (I could write a book... maybe I should!) However, I see the past 4 years as a blessing. We are closer than we have ever been. As difficult as it has been (I am also a long distance caregiver), it has also been very rewarding. I thank God every day that she is still with us at 93, and that I have this chance to show her how much I love her. Thank you for sharing what is in your heart. ~BarbBabalaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02546176506027149065noreply@blogger.com
