Hello all. I am hoping I am going to be able to come in and talk more to you all in our wonderful site once again, after nearly a year of struggling with sick parents, and a sick son.
My mom and dad has lived with us, in their own flat, built onto our house, for about 8 years. My Dad started acting funny about a year ago, after receiving a heart pacemaker, and we thought it was only because of his Diabetes, and that the heart was the cause of the sugar not being too good. The last six months he has realy not been good, and ended up in hospital 5 times. The last time the doctors would not allow us to take him home,because we could not care for a 87jr old man with Diabetes, heart problems, and now Alsheimers. We managed to get him into a good care centre, and all of us are so relieved. My mom did not want us to get a carer, because she believed that she could look after him,she is 85jrs old and still very active, but it was draining us all. She is also going to the same home at the end of November, where she's gotten a lovely little flat, full of sunshine.
I would just like to ask you all to keep us in your prayers, that they will be happy there, as it is a big step, and we miss them already.
Thank you Cuties for always being there for all, and for listening (reading).
Hugs and God bless all
Marietta
They should be fine once your Mom moves in.
They are not far, so you can still visit when ever.
Hugs and love

So glad to read that you have got your parents into a caring facility. I know what you are going through and can only say that you have done the right thing. It's always hard to see any parent unwell and it's such a relief when you know they are being looked after 24/7. God bless you for all you have done over the past 8 years. Love and blessings Chris
