Sinopsis

Today on Creating Real Marriages that Last, I talk about how I miss my mom. I have coffee with her five or six times a week, but it’s not the same as it used to be. It’s been almost two years since we moved mom up here after her diagnosis with Alzheimer’s and Vascular Dementia. People ask me how my mom is doing and my standard answer is, “She’s better because she’s worse.” She’s more content and at ease in her surroundings now because she has very little recollection of Huntsville. What hurts me is that a lot of you didn’t know my mom. My mom was the strongest woman I’ve ever seen in my life. So to see her not know what to do or not remember, that breaks my heart. It’s a very emotionally fatiguing journey. But, if you love your mom, you’re not going to give her what she wants because that will hurt her or someone else. She's trusting me to be strong.
