jendew Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 It's so good to hear someone else that is so happy just for the small moments. Can I share mine? Today, I'm thankful that I got to see my three year old helping my father take his breathing treatment. She loves being his nurse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindy0519 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 We are so lucky to have each other. Amen!!!! The "small stuff" is what life is really all about Lori, makes me teary thinking about it. I too was VERY blessed to have been involved in my Dad's life during at time when all the "small stuff" meant SO incredibly much! Told the hospice staff everday when they asked how he was "cranky...but we LOVE that he is here to be cranky". I meant EVERY WORD and still do!!! Praying that you have many, many more of these moments! God Bless your family! Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welthy Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 It's strange how tiny our world becomes when simple things like that make such a big difference. But they do and we're glad for them. I can identify. Hoping for many more "simple things" for you and your Mother. Welthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmrsm Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 ((((LORI)))) I am so sorry for what you have to go through. It is great that you can bring your mother home and have the strength to care for. Take each day one day at a time and enjoy every minute with your mother and the little things you can do for her and the memories you are creating. My prayers, thoughts and hope are with you and your family. It sure does stink. God Bless. Cathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kathleen Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Lori - your message is such a breath of fresh air for me! I help my father care for my Mom. I have a sister who comes home a few times per year. When she is here she makes it well known what a burden it is for her!!! I have for the most part been staying with my folks for the past year since my Mom was diagnosed. I too enjoy those simple moments with Mom, from baths to watching old television comedies, to feeding her, changing her and yes the getting up several times per night with her! Our conversations are not what they once were but I would much rather share these simple moments than not have her here! I'm so happy that your Mom has you - you are such a gift to one another. God Bless and many more special moments to you both k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
