Amen to that Cherry! This forum and the wonderful folks on it do lend some great advice and support. And we know they do so from a place of having experienced it, not just from the outside looking in.

I agree about the fog. It does cloud the judgement and logic of our loved ones. But we have learned what we can do to positively influence them to come out if they so choose, but more importantly it will help us gain the strength to survive and thrive on the other side no matter what the outcome is.

We will come out on the other side. And now we know how to do it for the better if we stay focused and work day in and day out. As Michelle says in DR, be sure to see the small wins.
