When my father called and said he thought my mother and he should be closer to family, I didn’t feel unprepared or alone, just the opposite. Family was going to be close by! After college I moved south and never looked back to the cold winters! But I missed not having family near.

 

I often worked seven days a week and was on call 7 x 24 for the majority of my career. I guess you could have called me a workaholic:).….but my work team was the only family I had close by. So this was going to be great! And fortunately changes filtered into our life slowly as the progression of my mother’s dementia progressed.

 

I am just here to share some memories…..no books to sell or articles to read just a few thoughts, a few funny stories and only perhaps a few tips.

 

Look forward to hearing from others if you want to share your experiences and tips for others.
