There are 5.4 million people who have Alzheimer's. It cost 183 billion dollars in annual costs. Alz's is the 6th leading cause of death.
To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
WE LOVE HIM BECAUSE HE FIRST LOVED US
1 John 4: 9-10

I Need A Vacation


Thanks for the wonderful comments and great advice on "I Cried Today".Mom is better .And I will be sure she get her fluids .


Anyway after yesterday I am ready for vacation. Last summer my ex sent us airline tickets to Las Vegas for my sons graduation gift. It was great. My brother, his ex wife ,his daughter and my sister and her husband cared for my mom. Yes it took 5 people to care for my mom for a week.LOL! Needless to say when we got back they all ran for the hills.My brother shys away from caring for her now he will if I ask but after the week of it he won't volunteer.


Anyway My son invited his girlfriend and we had a blast. I would of rather went to the beach but for free airline tickets Vegas was good.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your sweet comments on my blog.
    Yes, Alzheimer's is so different with each person, and I just hope and pray that David continues to enjoy and love our cat and dog.

    I'm so sorry for you, in your journey with Alzheimer's..... You're such a good daughter to take care of your mother. I know it isn't an easy job.

    Have a good day!
    Dolores
