Damn, Trowertripper, I had to go play Bridge of Sigh’s, and cry some, for you and your Ma.
Brings back my time of the 9 months of horror, staying with my mom as she slowly faded from earth. It was not Alzheimer’s for her/me/us.
A waking nightmare for every second of that time.
I so wish I had words to help you, but as you know, one foot in front of the other. Damn this so harsh!
Stay strong man!!

I’m so sorry to hear this man, that’s really hard to deal with. My mom had early stage Alzheimers when she died recently and it was tough to deal with for everyone, I hope you’ve got support not just from us

I’m very sorry to hear about this situation. @Trowertripper
I know these types of things are incredibly difficult. You know your OG family is wishing you the best and sending you and your mom strengthening healing vibes.
Hopefully she recovers well and I know with you making sure she has someone with her to care and ensure she gets everything she needs, it’s much better for her than being in that kind of environment by herself.
Much love, and best wishes!!

As many have already said, Alzheimer’s sucks! It is horrifying when your mom or dad doesn’t recognize their own child. It’s so difficult to not take it personally, or at least it was for me. Just keep reminding yourself, that is the person who raised and loved me, who fed and clothed me, and who gave me the opportunity for life itself. Love them for a life well lived. You are the living proof that that life was indeed well lived.
I’m so sorry to hear about your mom. I’m sending you and your mom positive loving vibes.

Best of luck, man. I feel for you and your mom. Went down that road with my grandmother, and it’s a tough road to hoe. Try to keep your chin up. You will get through it.

Sorry my friend I can’t fathom what that is like. I lost my Mom to cancer a couple years ago, and it was devastating but alzheimers plus a break and pneumonia! It is almost worse for you and the family because your Mom doesn’t understand what’s happening. Hang in there. Do whatever you can for her, but remember to take care if yourself as well. You can’t be there for her if you get burned out or sick from exhaustion.

Sorry to hear this @Trowertripper, I’ve been down the Alzheimer’s trail before, and it truly sucks. It’s not something I wish on anyone. Stay strong, and keep your head up.
I lost my dad 3 years ago to a fall, caused a Brain bleed that was unfixable due to his heart condition. Blood thinners made it so they couldn’t do surgery due to him bleeding out, and stopping the blood thinners, his heart wouldn’t take it, we were stuck between a rock and hard place.
Enjoy every precious second you can with your mom, don’t get discouraged, and take things she might say with a grain of salt.
prayers sent for you and your family on this road ahead
