So, so sorry that you're having to go through this, Julia.  You will feel sad for awhile, there's no escaping that.  But you will be able to do what you need to do for your mom.  Your love for your mother is your strength and your guide on this journey.  You know that she would do the same for you.  Praying that God will help you and your family during these hard times.  Do keep posting.  We will all help to lift you up.

I am so sorry about your mom.  Our moms are the one true love we can count on in our lives ..
GOD is kind though and perhaps the dementia is his plan so that she wont know the pain so much .
I will pray for her and you though and that HIS WILL is what will happen and he will take care of everything else .
I lost my son 2 years ago and prayer what the only thing that helped me get through it ..
GENTLE HUGS for you today ..

Julia, I wish I could personally give you that hug. But know that you and your entire family are in my prayers and in my heart. It brings tears to my eyes thinking of what you are going through! My Mom passed just 3 weeks after her cancer diagnosis. None of us know God's plan. All we can do is accept.

Dear Julia!

Nothing I can say will take the pain and heartache away but please know that you and your Mom are in my thoughts and prayers.  I remember how hard it was to leave Mom each time, turning back so often to see her in her wheelchair in her doorway, waving at me.  I felt so guilty because I had such mixed feelings...hating to leave her yet almost needing to get away as well.

Tomorrow JB and I leave to go away on a vacation..family wedding and visits up north and in Quebec. I've prepared a CD filled with pix of my Mom to give to my adopted sister who lives up there.  I had gotten into the habit of taking at least two photos of Mom everytime I visited her and now I can really see how she deteriorated the last six months..it's painful to look back at them but it is reality and my sister needs to see them too. After taking care of Mom alone for the last sixteen years, I am amazed at how much I miss her despite all the family drama and issues.

Treasure each moment with her, Julia, whether she knows you are there or not...you have been such a devoted daughter, trying to do what's best for your Mom even when she may not recognize that.  You also need to take care of you.  But you know all of this..just understand that you are loved and all things happen in their turn.

Blessings!  Nancy B
