She has Alzheimers and she is slowly losing who she is. It is so painful watching him go through this. He misses her, and she is still here. He misses her cooking- her apple pie and stuffed peppers. But she can't remember how to make them. And if she could, she would forget what she is doing in the middle of making it and would become confused. :( I am going to ask my father-in-law to gather some of my husband's favorite recipes of his mother's, so I can try to make them for him. I know they will probably not be exactly like his mom's, but I am hoping it helps... even a little. Death is also my fear, but for different reasons.Carrie Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563560526526336292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029815370579345099.post-54339910742824258322012-07-05T07:59:51.943-05:002012-07-05T07:59:51.943-05:00You will probably want to skip reading an upcoming...You will probably want to skip reading an upcoming post I just finished writing for the Summer Blog Challenge about the hardest challenge I've faced. It's about losing my dad. He died on January 5th of this year.<br /><br />It is an incredibly difficult experience. He, like your mom, was the one who I knew I could count on for advice, support, and encouragement. <br /><br />In retrospect, I would have loved to ask his advice on a lot of different issues while either videotaping or audiotaping his answers. Then, type up what he said. I think these would have been wonderful gifts to my daughters as they go through life and wondered what their Papa would have done.<br /><br />Your mom sounds like a very special and loving person. She sounds like she's a positive guiding force in your life!Harvest Moon by Handhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18026575111937500816noreply@blogger.com
