Bad Day. Kim, Mom and I went to Dr Waite's, and he told Mom that she has to get help /i.e. go to an Adult Family Home, or Assisted Living, or Center of some sort full time. Mom can't recall things that are new more than a few seconds, but this was such a shock to her psyche, that she actually held on to the ACTUAL memory for about 5+/- hours! As you can imagine, it was a cry-fest for us ladies, and even Leslie, Dr Waite's Nurse, welled up and hugged Mom a lot. She has no idea how easy it is for people to fall in love with her and want to be near her. She has such an impact on people, she's so sparkly and fun and funny -- so absolutely Gerry. This news hurts on so many levels -- I'm not ready at all. ##
