The other day when they had their grooming appointment he had a little moment similar to folks who have dementia. He has been around the groomer for a while now and is comfortable with her but this day, at this time, he just wasn’t comfortable with anyone. So I get a call on my…

I just for once would like not to struggle…just once. I realize there are so many people who have been dealt a bad hand and others don’t even use their own. Some that think mommy and daddy are they forever…
● If I get dementia, I want my friends and family to embrace my reality. If I think my spouse is still alive, or if I think we’re visiting my parents for dinner, let me believe those things. I’ll be much happier for it.● If I get dementia, don’t argue with me about what is true for me versus what is true for you.● If I get dementia, and I am not sure who you…
Originally posted 2019-12-30 07:38:22. Yeah, I wasn’t in a mood to try to figure out a fitting title this morning. As I sit here waiting for my pain medications to kick in I was just thinking. Though that’s hard for some of us natural blonde’s 😉 It started in 2017. My husband lost his grandmother so we went to Tampa to be with family. To celebrate her life, the matriarchal legacy. Even though I knew…

Originally posted 2017-02-09 16:50:48. If you have read all my posts you may recall when I mentioned something about Dusty and him almost getting on an ice cream truck. Kayla kept him from listening to the guy that was trying to get him on the truck. As a parent things like this terrifies the hell out of me. Well, you would think anyone would worry about someone kidnapping a child, even more if it’s a…

Put in negative terms, almost all of us want to avoid moving into senior housing, at least until we have no other choice. But most also agree that assistance may become necessary as our capacities decline and our needs multiply. It seems we have to choose: Either hold onto the comfort and independence of living…

I feel like some of the patients in the memory care units, nursing homes would benefit from this. But I of course haven’t seen it with my own eyes. What do you think?

Originally posted 2015-10-29 13:44:42. I think we all have a bit of “crazy” at times. Some more than others. I feel like it’s an overage of emotion, emotional outbursts. If someone remained level-headed their entire life, not once having a spike of emotion, then are the ones we need to look out for. But that is just one persons opinion. Call me crazy, call me what you want. Do you know how incredibly easy it…
