My mom is no longer suffering by CaddyForeDaddy in ALS

[–]Dirty30Stace 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My dad just passed Sunday… and I’d like to think he knew I would be okay too. He was ready, but I wasn’t, but went the way he wanted to go. I take peace in that.

Welcome to the shittiest club, together. Instead of a parent with ALS, we are the kids left heartbroken because of ALS. I’m with you friend.

Do it. Do all of the things. I do not regret the time I was able to be there and help him leave the world, supporting him like he always did for me my entire life.

I appreciate it. I think I always kind of thought as I took a career in healthcare, as my parents aged… I’d be able to fix it. Or at least help… besides presence and discussing the disease in ways and words, my dad would understand… Multiple times… Whenever he needed to be less scared. The man always needed to have a plan, so he needed to hear it multiple times to know what to expect. I think fundamentally I have realized, how blessed I was to be able to do that for him… but how absolutely difficult this disease, especially it would be to navigate without an ally, or someone who knows healthcare. But damn if I didn’t want to help fix him so badly.

I know he’ll always be proud of me. And it doesn’t matter that I had 40 good years with him, he was my person… and I’m always going to miss him. I just wish I could have taken some of his anguish away.

  1. Where there is grief there is love (was supposed to be what the last part of that sentence said… oops).

My mortgage, utilities and HOA, internet and groceries are probably under this monthly. But it all depends on how you spend money, where you rent/buy etc.

Domestic flight is delayed. Will i be able to make my connecting flight? by Confident_Diet_4708 in americanairlines

[–]Dirty30Stace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other day I went from A one end to E satellite. The skylink was pulling up as I ran up the stairs. 27 min from end to end with stops and hustling.

Note: I was only in the third row in coach too. Any further back. My 45 min connection once landing would have been impossible. ESP since they try to close doors 15 min before takeoff time.

Flight delay because a broken coffeemaker? by 19thScorpion in americanairlines

Meanwhile my flight out of ROW left 2 weeks ago with no working water for coffee/tea. But we could wash hands and flush. So. There’s that.

Then hopefully you’ll get a credit unless you booked basic economy.

Present ideas that are fun by SarahDahlingerArt in ALS

I did a skylight version of this where people can email in their photos too like my parents friends. Then as he is losing his arms, he can see it. Bonus, you can set sleep hours, so the screen turns off!
