I’ll ditto that! My Mom passed in 2017, though she was on her way 2 years before that. She stopped recognizing me in 2015.
It’s heartwarming that you take such good care of her. You are a living, modern day saint, Qiviut. I truly believe that.
Agreed - a dynamic duo!
I am definitely no ‘saint’! I just feel a strong obligation to take care of my parents in their later years because of the great care & parenting they gave me in my younger years. Dad, of course is gone, but the goal of keeping him home was met. The same for mom - fortunately, her overall health is good ... my goal is that mom will be able to stay here at home where she loves it so much.
There are other motivations like a family pattern of caring for their elderly in homes when possible & my experience being medical power of attorney for a friend for 3 years until she passed. She was in a bad nursing home and I’ll leave it at that.
