Being a care giver is very hard. My mom died this summer
after living with me for the last six months. Her dementia
just got worse and worse. My sister and a younger brother
are still alive however my sister is not well and I worry
about her depression. She has a daughter and my brother
has a son but I couldn’t have kids and ended up losing
someone I really cared about. Now It’s just me and my dog.
Still, it’s grey and rainy and is a beautiful day.

Through tragedy and betrayals, I’m entering the seasoned part of life with only Christ to lean on.

Certainly, the adventure of life has provided views from the mountaintop as well as the deepest valleys...but it has strengthened my faith in Him.

To TGKC and others alone, please know we are never alone when Christ is with us.

God Bless to fellow seasoned freepers feeling alone these daze...

Having children nowadays is no guarantee that they will care for you in old age. Today’s generation is more likely to worry about what they can grab and some even plan to have their parents done in to cash in.

Wow, there really are a lot of us. I keep thinking there should be a solution.

Every time I move, I notice that there is a senior center .... yet none of them seem to have any “meetings” or gatherings whee people can get together and see if they have anything in common.

How hard could it be to do something like that unless no one shows up!
