I just feel guilty because I am just like her, never finding the time to be with their parents. Reading this made me cry and I promise to myself that I'll spend more time with them. <BR/><BR/>I'm sorry if this is a misunderstanding. </I>Ivÿhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00512182264847947199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5441071.post-1145349093684977772006-04-18T16:31:00.000+08:002006-04-18T16:31:00.000+08:00Hi Ivan,I'm really sorry that your mom has Alzheim...Hi Ivan,<BR/>I'm really sorry that your mom has Alzheimer's Disease; it must be so difficult on everybody. At some point in our parents lives, the roles are reversed. We become the adult & they revert to childhood. It isn't too late at all to show your mom how much you love her. Make sure she's treated with dignity & loving care. If you haven't told your parents, I strongly suggest you do so. I don't mean to preach, but I lost my dad in 1993 & wish i'd treated him different & told him that I loved him more often. I was like you though, nervous to say it. That's probably the greatest gift you can give to your parents...your love.<BR/>Thanks for visiting my blog & taking the time to say HI. I'm glad I have read your blog.janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516413877078827053noreply@blogger.com
