Janet: My Mother died last May...she had Alzheimer's. The last six months of her life was spent in a nursing home. When we had to move her from an Alzheimer's based facility to the nursing home, she could only take several small things and her clothes (limited amount). This was the sum total of an 87 year olds life: one picture of each of her six children, none of her grand and great grand children, a lamp, a small quilt I made for her, her Bible, a bedside table and a small chair. Thank you God for not letting her be of sound mind so that she didn't know.......I felt, and still do feel like I abandoned her. I do know what you are going through and ask God to help you, he will. That is the only way I made it through. Thank you and I will remember you in my prayers.
Respectfully, GiGi
