    • About Me

      Hi everyone my name is Gina and this is the first time I've been on a site such as this. I am 42 yrs old navy veteran with one grown child, and one grandbaby. I care full time for my grandmother who suffers from dementia/alzheimers, and I also care for my little grandson much of the time. 2 yrs ago I escaped out of a domestic violence relationship and 9 months ago I quit smoking.Lots of changes for me, but moving forward. Blessings Gina

      Ho boy, do I know what you're saying! A few days ago, I had the morning to myself and all of the sudden, just BURST into tears! It was a great cry.... I'm the daughter-in-law dealing with this, and my husbands grief over his mother. A good cry is to be expected.

      Thank you, I will remember that you are on late. my ex sister-in-law sits with Mom when I have to go grocery shopping or the vets or eye appointsments etc. Who would have thought just getting to Walmarts would be such an adventure.
