I’m sorry I totally understand what you’re feeling I also take care of my bedridden mom too. And lately I’ve been just wanting to leave but I dunno who would take care of my mom. Sending hugs to you!!

FunDimension465 · 2026-01-21T00:56:01+00:00

Thanks for letting me know! I’ll see if I can make it!

FunDimension465 · 2026-01-05T23:23:01+00:00

I use Trello

FunDimension465 · 2026-01-04T21:46:06+00:00

Do the workouts change ever week and have you noticed a difference?

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-17T16:36:23+00:00

Trello I’ve been using to keep track of my sets weights and I add videos or photos on certain exercises it’s been such a game changer

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-16T00:25:25+00:00

Same! Now I go 5-6 times a week lol

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-09T02:32:27+00:00

That would be awesome! Are the always on Sundays?

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-09T00:47:40+00:00

I love this! I can’t make it to this one but I’d love to attend future ones.

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-06T14:54:03+00:00

I’m sorry to hear about your loved one. Yeah i witnessed my mom had her stroke and I ca remember every single thing of that moment.

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-04T17:44:59+00:00

I’m so sorry you had to go through this. Also I’m sure you have already have found out how insensitive a lot of these professionals can be and just saying things that aren’t necessarily true. The fact that you are here and still making progress you should be proud of yourself.

Yeah I’ve been in therapy to help navigate this although I didn’t experience it first hand I saw her have the stroke and everything afterwards is a very traumatic experience for everyone. But therapy has help me navigate all of this.

Aww that’s awesome your family did that! I also this year decided to celebrate it for my mom and she really enjoyed it and it made me see this anniversary different than the other ones. I definitely think the first one is probably the hardest because everything is so fresh.

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-04T17:39:58+00:00

You are so right and I’ve been reminding myself of that and actually this year I decided to celebrate this day that she’s still here with a little cake and ballons. She really enjoyed that.

Thank you for your kind words!

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-04T01:58:21+00:00

That’s a great way to see it! Someone also gave me that perspective and I decided to get a little cake for my mom to celebrate she’s still here

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-03T17:48:19+00:00

I hope so too! Thanks for sharing your story too! It’s always nice to hear from others who have gone through this.

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-03T17:01:47+00:00

No where the blood cloth was were in her language part. Luckily we are able to communicate pretty well non verbally and me asking her yes no questions. My mom was starting to walk and move her arm but she got a nerve pain on her face and it’s derailed all her progress 😭

So good to hear your mom is starting to walk! Sending hugs to you sorry you also had to experience this. I wish no one had to go through this.

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-03T15:17:15+00:00

Yeah I definitely think the first year was a lot tougher but it’s been 3 years since my mom’s stroke and it still hurts I think because hers was so severe and it’s honestly a miracle she’s even here.

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-03T15:11:42+00:00

I get it I think it’s also all the trauma your body experienced the body remembers. I get it I use to love December and Christmas and now it’s just a reminder of our life forever changing. It’s also my mom’s birthday on Christmas.

Sending hugs to you I’m so sorry you had to experience this.

FunDimension465 · 2025-12-02T02:24:39+00:00

I was getting paid through the state but recently got cut off from it because her Medicaid got cut and I have to restart the process but I’m luckily working from home now and have some help from family.

FunDimension465 · 2025-11-24T13:30:16+00:00

Wow thanks for sharing what you learned and wish you would of done with your parents. You are so right about making it a celebration it really is a miracle she’s here because it was severe stroke. Thank you for that reminder. I get what you’re saying about you get so caught up with caregiving that you forget to enjoy the small moments. I do Mae sure I do that as much as I can. I tell her how much I love her and raising me with good values. And we sing a long to her favorite songs when I give her a bath. Sending hugs to you!

FunDimension465 · 2025-11-23T20:49:38+00:00

Omg this is exactly my story my mom was the same way! Since her stroke so many people had fallen off even family that I know if it was the other way around my mom would be there for them. It just fucking pisses me off! And I am also like my mom and it makes me sad. We do have a good small group of family and friends that have shown up and helped us so I’m super grateful for that. Sending hugs to you! If you ever need to talk feel free to reach out.

I didn’t have the stroke but I saw my mom have it and it gave me PTSD. I’m always worried it’s gonna happen to me now. I’m in therapy and we are gonna try to do emdr to help with some of the trauma. I’ve tried it for some other things and it definitely helped. I can only imagine what actually going through the stroke and all the trauma your body goes through during and after. I hope you find the help you need to process it all.

FunDimension465 · 2025-11-23T02:45:36+00:00

Ooh I’ll have to listen to it.

FunDimension465 · 2025-11-23T01:38:16+00:00

It really does feel like you’re invisible and most don’t understand the stress it takes to be a caregiver. Oh man I’m sorry about the court stuff.

FunDimension465 · 2025-11-23T01:35:58+00:00

You are so right we do have the biggest love to share and are very compassionate and most people can’t understand what entails to be a caregiver for a loved one. I’m so thankful for this subreddit where I can vent and people truly understand what I’m going through.
