And the waters get deeper....

Got news yesterday that on top of mom's Lewy Body Dementia/Parkinsons, my father has been upgraded from mild cognitive impairment to probably Alzheimer's. Fucking yay. Sigh. Also got news that one of my hub managers died. 32 years old with a 5 year old and 3 year old twins. Rough day yesterday. Fucking rough day. Could i get some more added to my plate? Ya know? Fuck! I'll keep on truckin. Just needed to bitch for a minute, y'all.....

It's a way to ward off an explosion, so to speak.

Whatever you need or whenever you need it, feel free to do it here.

i hope you have help. if you dont, get it however you can.
try not to let it get to you. they're gonna say crazy shit. learn to just nod, and let it go.
i remember talking to my mom toward the end, and being a bit amused by the snippets of conversation that were familiar, but made no sense. things she'd said a million times, but strung together into nonsense.

i'm at the age where acceptance is easier because solutions arent possible for a lot of things. learning that solutions can be a waste of energy when there arent any good ones.
