I see that with my sister now that Im away with Mom. My sister sees how hard this can be but I think in a small way she is glad Mom is coming back home with me....when it is far away it is just a story but in front of you it is reality...mom is getting older, mom can no longer do the things she once did. its eye opening but honest. They really dont want to know however...it is easier to remember things the way they were for some people I suppose. i agree with donna 100%. people who are not dealing with this dont understand…

Be honest with others about how I feel about cargiving, about some of the situations I have dealt with and am dealing with now. Honesty, although it can be difficult for the individual I am sharing with, is important and in many ways lifesaving to me. Non-caregivers whether family, friends or just someone you meet in the store, don't really know or want to know the honest truths we deal with everyday, but they need to be told, at lest for us they do.
