      Dianne, Thanks for the hug. I just wish we all lived closer. We could have coffee and cake while our parents are in another room. Can you imagine our parents together. LOL I am always around if you need me. Eleanor

      Type: Loss of a Parent

      I lost my mom last Monday. She had collapsed at her home 1 week before that. I had attempted CPR until the rescue arrived. They shocked her 3 times. She was at the hospital 1 week. Actually she was conscious for a couple of days. She couldn't talk due to the ventilator. Then on Monday morning early she took a turn for the worst. She passed over at 11:48 a.m. This is so hard for my brothers, sister and especially my dad. They were married almost 57 years.

      At times I will be okay then all of a sudden it hits me and I start crying. it makes me feel really sad to see my dad cry.
      Prayer Working / Worked
      I have been praying so much lately. I do get comfort talking to God about how I am feeling.

      Hello. The past 8 months I have been pretty much a full time caregiver for my dad. My mom passed away 8 months ago. He lives with my husband and me. I also have a full time and a part time job outside of the home. My 2 kids are on their own. I have 2 brothers and a sister. I get help from my oldest brother sometimes but I feel like my other brother and sister could at least offer to help me but it seems like they don't want to help. Sometimes I feel al alone. My dad is easy to care for.
