With and without her. Life with my mother and her trip through dementia . Tuesday, July 15, 2014. Not everything beautiful, that God has made, lasts forever. Sunsets, warm orange, cool pinks, dusky gray, elusive green. There are certain sunsets that stay with you forever, you remember them, even though they are fleeting. A windy sunset at Lands End in San Francisco with my husband. A fire red sunset in Key West with my children. A frosty pink and yellow sunset at our new home. Being at Zion National Park...

With and without her. Life with my mother and her trip through dementia . Thursday, March 27, 2014. I feel a deep, sad desire to say goodbye to my Mother. I feel that I've lost her and I don't know where she is. She's been my responsibility for so long. I have this lost feeling, like I've lost my purse or house keys. I know something important is missing, is gone, and I can't find it. Is it because dementia has been a series of many little goodbyes? But I want to scream. NO! I was not a good daughter!

With and without her. Life with my mother and her trip through dementia . Saturday, May 24, 2014. February 28th, I was roused by the phone chirping at 2:20 in the night. It was the nurse from Mom's assisted living residence. Mom had been awake and fitful all night, her oxygen levels are low, she has difficulty breathing, gurgling, she has a fever, they might take her to the hospital. What does this mean? I don't understand. I'm half asleep. The nurse called back, they were taking her to the ER. I began t...

The deadline for filing our federal and state taxes is here. The joy of spring is overshadowed by the task of filling out these forms. For many of us, we put it off until the last day, the last possible moment. Why have I been procrastinating? But, the tax forms, once again, take me back to that place, the place where dementia ...
