i am 39 years old and just over 2 years ago i found out my mother who is 63 has ad.
ad runs in the family, my mothers father died from this and also my mothers sister died from this at the age of 41.
when i first found out i thought we can deal with this, but as time has gone on trying to keep a full time job, look after a family and care for my mother , i wonder how i will continue to keep up with everything.
i feel i am losing the mother i knew, my bestfriend she is not the strong independent person she once was, roles have been reversed and i find it hard to deal with.
my emotions are all over the place , not knowing how to feel and what to expect for the future
