I love to hear about son's who help care for their elderly parents. My DH is one of those who took loving care of his mother for two years. Her dementia became so bad we could not get her to eat so we put her in a foster home as her Dr. thought having someone to eat all her meals with would help. (It didn't) She did not even know we had moved her she thought she had a lot of house guests.

He works two jobs to support himself and to help with his grandchildren. He goes to our 89 yr old mother's apartment several times a week to check on her and bring her anything she may need. He is the one we can all count on if there is a need. He has house sat, animal fed, painted, worked on yard projects and taken our parents to the doctor. He deserves a special recognition for all he does. He is a devout Christian who loves the Texas Ranger baseball team. So here is what we made for him.
