Scott _65's blog post - My Mom

Monday, April 23, 2007, 2:10:10 AM
This year has not been that good. If anybody read my previewed blogs. My Mom was diagnosis with Dementia; it’s a form of Alzheimer’s. Now she’s not doing that good, it’s really hard to get her doing anything. We tried to get her to walk around everyday, it’s just not enough. So I my Dad & my Brother got her into a Nursing home. Actually it’s a Veterans home. We put her into the Veterans home last Monday. I had to wear my sunglasses in the home, so she could not see my tears; it was very hard to leave her. For 42 yrs my Mom always been there for me, so it's very hard not seeing her everyday. The Veterans home is 2hrs away, so it’s not an easy commute. Tomorrow, I get to see her. I so nervous, I don’t know what to expected. The nurses’ says she is doing well & she’s happy

Aww Scott... not good. What you're doing is making it so you have help, that's all. It's a tough one, but you will get through this.
