If you have money
Seeing your parent (Mother) once a month.
And a phone call once a day.
And to keep telling that person they have alzheimers.
You call that love ?
We do not have money, Ron and I, but we have LOVE.
And I suspect, most of us, in our situation would prefer the 24/7 hand's on love we give.
When it might come time to let go, we do, but with a heavy heart.
And, from past experience, a once a month visit, well it would not do for me. Because I would hurt, I know the person who has this illness might not even remember you, but I would remember them, and the pain of not seeing them, does anyone understand ?
It is not about how much money we have, or what we can throw at them, new clothes, day out, etc. But about how we can make the person we love, feel loved.
Does anyone understand what I am trying to say ?
Love Barb & Ron X
