RE:Talk about being dicourage

OK! I give up, I really don't think that my mother in law will ever

understand this illness that Fred has. Try as I may, she just doesn't

understand or maybe just doesn't listen to what I tell her about it.

She can see that Fred has gotten worst over the years, but still

thinks that she can fix it by taking him off the meds, that it is the

meds that is doing it to him.I was really hoping that she understood

finelly. Fred had gone fishing with the man down the street. Harvey

takes him every few weeks , he takes Fred meds with him , the food

and water, drives him into the pond and sets everything up for Fred,

from baiting the hook , to casting it for him. This time Fred had to

change his clothes, so they stopped by Fred's brother house so he

could change. Fred was in the bathroom for over an hour and 1/2

before his brother went to check on him and then saw that he had to

help him dress. His mother called the next day and said she wanted to

come down to see us. I was sure that Dennis had said something to

her. Well she did come down and she saw how Fred was doing, and darn

if she didn't call me the next day and tell me that if I would only

let Fred go up to her place for a few weeks, she would get him back

to his old self by taking him off his meds, that , that is what is

making him the way he is.Now he wonder if sinemet really doesn't do

anything for the MSA why he is on it? So ok where is the wet noodle,

I really would love to ring her neck with it, Ok! I'll be nice, but

it's so hard when I'm the one here taking care of him and she thinks

she has all the answers. I love her, but boy it's hard at times.

Fed up to here
