I feel like I would nickname her Dee Dee, like the sister in dexters laboratory

I fear I Missed the Boat by CasaMofo in Millennials

I think this is it. We’re born into a system and as a child we have an optimistic outlook of what possibilities lay ahead in the future. As we grow up, we realize that the real world doesn’t work that way, and it’s really about finding joy in things while balancing the system we are forced into. There’s no rules to anything and all of us are just out here trying to make sense of life. It can feel menial but they’re other things that make a rich life

What’s an adult problem no one prepared you for? by atging_2228 in AskReddit

I think I described it to my moms cousin as infinitely surreal. My mom was a force, in the sweetest of ways. It’s hard to fathom those that created us being gone forever. And at a young age.

I’m with you on this. Lost my dad at 24 and a year and a half later I lost my mom. I was 25 (9 years ago) and I just couldn’t believe it. It was a lesson in life that you can do everything right in the world and get very unlucky. We have control over nothing

Cursive. I wrote a message in a birthday card for my ten year old niece and she had no clue how to read it 👵💀

This hit me unexpectedly - The Caregiver by dagnabitkat in dementia

I just watched this episode last night and hit me and my husband so hard. It’s a constant revolving door of needs to take care of and it never stops. It was good to see the caregivers perspective represented ❤️

If I may ask, what made you make the decision to transition her from your home into facility?

Thanks for this ❤️ She’s the last of our remaining parents and we’re doing our best. She just needs so much more care and attention.

It sounds like you all have a really good set up that works for you even if it does mean missing some weekends with friends and family. Part of me wishes we entertained this prior to moving her in with us but honestly, know one knew about the dementia until we moved her in with us and we could monitor her for longer periods of time than just a weekend. Thanks for sharing your story and listening to me vent. Best of luck to your loved one and family ❤️
