Thank you, (((addie))) and (((SMW)))!

I'm going to start reading about Alzheimer, there are some good forums out there. And I will look at the facilities, SMW, just in case. I'm also thinking about part time nurse in the near future. I'm really short of money at the moment and I have to think carefully about what can be done.

When I said I feel alone, I meant I have no family to take care of her/us. It's just me and my mom. Her dementia is not severe yet, but the time will come, and very soon, when I will have to make all health care-related decisions, alone. It frightens me.

I still have to learn not to count on H. Many friends, when told about my mom's condition, offered their help and support. H just said "it's afwul". He sounded as if he didn't really hear me. He's acting very strange recently. He is calling and then doesn't really speak. I'm tired of breaking awkward silences, after all HE is calling me. I cannot help thinking about what MLC stage he might be in, 2x4 me if you will .


I ask not for a lighter burden, but for broader shoulders
