Happened with both my parents and it was the hardest time of my life. I tried to accept the "new" them and enjoy what little tidbits I could. It was hard. They were in physical and mental pain. But there is always a tiny bright light in the corner that once in awhile shines on a good moment or two so you can put that in your "this was a good day" box. Sometimes they are far and few between, but when they come it makes all the difference. I totally understand.

He had always been a drinker and since I don't drink he never had much to do with me. His new personality brought us closer.....I know that seems weird. He was also very funny. I loved it when he would laugh at himself. There were bad times of course, and we knew where it was all headed. It is so hard watching parents go downhill. My mother is 85 and amazing. My MIL is 84 and going downhill. <br />I will say some prayers for you so that you feel peace about what you cannot change.Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04242778760582160429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2256180612480611682.post-72737237670869430532012-01-18T06:24:46.276-08:002012-01-18T06:24:46.276-08:00I can definitely relate to how you and Shannan fee...I can definitely relate to how you and Shannan feel and I am saying prayers for you both.

It is very very hard to watch a parent deteriorate and watch the other parent have to take care of them as if they were a child. My MIL is going downhill quickly with Parkinsons and my FIL is still so spry but like you said when we go to the word we find his strength that he intended for us. I need to learn that is the first place to go instead of wallowing and worrying. You are such a delight to so many people.LeAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08218036174924581224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2256180612480611682.post-67894146844228957422012-01-18T05:34:11.207-08:002012-01-18T05:34:11.207-08:00You should probably call me when the enemy is whis...You should probably call me when the enemy is whispering to you in the middle of the night.
