Things are not all rosy. There are a lot of changes going on in our lives and we're in for some very challenging times ahead.
Last week my father went into a nursing home. He had been on a waiting list for 3 months, a spot became available and we had to make an immediate decision. He has been suffering from advanced Parkinson's and dementia for a few years now. It became extremely trying on the family both physically and emotionally because my father needed total care 24 hours a day. Next week my mother is having knee replacement surgery on her other knee. On top of all this, H is becoming very impatient (with himself) because he can't find work and there will be major changes occurring in my job in a couple of months.
As if Piecing wasn't hard enough in itself - we now have all these other major stressors in our lives to deal with.
