Hey folks, welcome to the new whine/general topic thread. Feel free to use this thread to discuss anything that is on your mind. Caregiving- related stuff, life after a loved one's death, your own emotional wellbeing. Whatever..........anything on your mind.
Having strong advocates makes a huge difference in the care our elders receive. I am sure of it.
Hoping that your sister is managing okay with her Mil having had a heart attack.
It is good that you can be there for your sister.
All about perspective :-)
I can only laugh at this moment. 🤣💫🤣
See what he says about the vaccines.
My Uncle passed one year ago this month, after having lived a wonderful life.
At my uncle's funeral yesterday my cousin told us how my uncle, caught up in pain and confusion of the moment, authorized them to do everything, effectively overriding his carefully thought advance directives. The poor man.
One of the issues is people saying the same words, but the meanings have changed.
Sorry that a family member is ill.
You are the very best person to be giving your sister that advice.
Hoping sister's husband will step up.
Sis called me for advice this morning, I told her she needs to watch her back and defer to family, plus as far as we know now MIL still has capacity to make her own choices. The family drama will begin this morning as sis starts making phone calls 😬
On the day to day living home front, I am very saddened to hear that your cat, Daniel, has died today. 😿
I will be remembering him, the stories you have told, and the way you stood strong with him through to the end of his life.
Prayers for your comfort.
My son reposted a vulgar but extremely funny video on the subject https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x41AYqvlCAs
Not even Boris could keep him after that. Sometimes you just don't know where to look.
Life sucks in so many ways. I'm going to be in constant prayer for a good while I think.😟
Sure we have our anti vaxxers too but on the whole there is no comparison. And our politicians and other elite found out pretty early on that any kind of covid hypocrisy would not be tolerated.
Excuse me?
I just sent an angry text to my "I'll get around to it later" nephew. If we can't reach the targets we will be stuck in this h3ll forever🤬
I’ll do as I’ve read elsewhere: “Pick your battles”. I have enough to worry about rather than worry and grieve over this. Right?!
Thanks again!
