Hi everyone been a while so thought I would drop a few lines to let you know i'm still around! my mum is coasting along at the moment, but decided last week not to take the aricept anymore as it was keeping her awake all night, so a bit dissapointed but what can I do I'm not going to force her. But over the last 3 weeks I have been slowly informing mums sister and good friends of her diagnosis, which takes some anxiety build up every time, but I got so frustrated at my brothers 2 weeks ago after ringing me for the 1st time since I rang them to tell them about mums results and keeping in mind that they live at the top end of Australia which is 3 days drive away or 1 whole day by air,they rang to see if I needed help finding mum a care home or help to sell the house!!!!! I was so taken back as she is nowhere near that stage yet,couldnt beleive it and yet they cant jump on a plane and come down to visit her any time but will come down to help sell the house, am I wrong to think that they are only thinking of a financial gain here? I am really struggling to be bothered to ring them at all anymore as they dont call me on a regular basis to see how mum is doing. An update on my progress with anti-depressants, all is going well seem to be quite relaxed for the last week or so my family cant beleive the change in me about being so layed back about not getting my housework done as I have always been padantic about it and at the moment it just doesnt seem to matter which is a little worrying, but am enjoying the moment!Sorry it's so long but to everyone who is having a horrible time lots of hugs and thoughts and a big hello to everyone look forward to talking real soon X X X Robyn
