[Guest guest]

Hi -

No worries. Todd's family is most gracious

in accepting me during the hospital stay,

visitation, and tomorrow's funeral. It was

nice seeing everyone again.

Also, is so patient and understanding

with me going. Life is so much easier now,

that's for sure.

Thank you for your condolences. isn't

handling this very well. His heart is broken.

Just one month ago Grandpa was up and

around and supporting as he was

heading to Europe. Made me think tonight

how 30 days can change a person so drastically.

Many hugs-

Sandie

Courage - to hear a voice

Hi Courage-

I completely understand and feel what you wrote

about " give anything to have a conversation with

my mom... "

My dad didn't talk the last almost 3 years of his

life. He was so internally tormented by LBD and

couldn't even tell anyone. Things happened and

I could never get an answer for say, the bruises.

I truly missed my dad's voice then and still do.

Today my dad would have been 69 years old.

I have a funeral to go to Wednesday for 's

grandpa, my ex-father-in-law. hmmmm

Feeling your need to hear Dear Olivia's voice

right along with you-

Hugs from the heart-

Sandie

I'd give anything to have a conversation with my mom no matter how

deluded it is. I suppose what I'm trying to say is that the stress that

we all feel lessens if we learn to just roll with this damned disease.

Best to you and your mom.
