I find myself unable to blog about my journey with Betty and yet this is the time when it is most important. A transition time really when she is recognizing the need for more help and that will allow us to approach having people come in. This is a good step and one we have been hoping for.
The problem for me is that I am in a funk. I am sure much of it has to do with grieving my little grandson Ethan's death. Some is my commitment to political views on Facebook. More than anything it is that I am depressed. I am sad about everything.
So, I will post when I can and hope to at the very least record our steps toward more help for Betty.
Oh my sweet friend, you're in a funk for good or bad cause. I do understand the depression; it's such an awful feeling, but you've been through a lot and you're going through a lot.... it takes time to grieve and you haven't had time to grieve. You're dealing with someone with Alzheimer's, who isn't your mom/dad/husband...... it would be so much harder dealing with an in-law.
ReplyDeletePlease know that you're in my thoughts and prayers...... and prayerfully, 'this too shall pass'....
I'm so glad to hear that Betty is more willing to have some help come in..... you need it!!
Hugs,
