But I didn't know he was now in a nursing home. And this is so new...since March? You've been through a lot. I have immense admiration for people who have lived what you've been through. I know such experiences enrich, and can make people deeper, wiser, more tolerant, and kinder--you're certainly a case in point! I can learn a lot from you.Violet N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16586574800230604652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8789541.post-4168696193341641462012-06-12T14:14:52.749-07:002012-06-12T14:14:52.749-07:00It is a lovely photo of your auntie, Violet. I...It is a lovely photo of your auntie, Violet. I'm so glad you posted it. You may not know but my husband is in a memory care unit of a nursing home now, as of March. He has Parkinson's with Lewy Body Dementia, & I found I could no longer care for him. I am struck with the beauty of the women (and men) there, who have lived productive lives & most are still their sweet selves, trying so hard to live well in a challenging space. I love your post & find that I am more confident now than in the earlier years, and I am kinder, less prone to conflict with others, although I never did have much I don't think. I am content to be where I am, just wish time didn't go so fast. Thank you for the lovely words.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
