    • About Me

      Dad recently passed away of late stages of PD and CHF. He had dementia too, that was the worst to deal with. It was very sad. Who was I every day when I walked in or would he be mad or happy to see me? Now: Returning to school.Spend my time w/something besides the grandkids and my own kids at home. I love the smell of my horse and the sound of her whinny when I come outside. I love my 3 dogs. Baseball is my fav sport.

    • Open Bereavement
      Type: Loss of a Parent

      Dad recently passed away and although I'm an adult my Dad had dementia and PD so the end result was not peaceful. He had become "crazy", hateful toward me usually which hurt a lot. Def. not my Dad. It's been hard to remember him when he was happy and he really loved me. I did everything for his good, cared for him for 9-1/2 years.
