My coping skills need a lot of work. I am so far down on the scale now, I don't know if I will be able to rise again. My mother now has Senile Dementia, dealing with her everyday is beyond my capibilities, my children are funn and not so funny..... My spouse lives in left field almost all the time. My insiders are in and out, out and in, Crying, not knowing what to do next. I have not had a lot of time to spend with them in the last couple of days. By last evening I was more than ready to sign myself in the hospital... I had had enouh.
This morning I am feeling like i have a hangover, tired and felling sick.,weak and afraid of what today will bring.....
No coping skills left....... at the end.....

(((((((((((((((((((((((Lilith))))))))))))))))))))))))) Is there any way you can take a "mini vacation" all by yourself? Sometimes some time with yourselves can be so good for me. Please take care. I hope things are better today.

LILITH, you have been through so much and you are grieving. Take time to regroup and believe that you are strong.

My thoughts are with you.

Se pĺ mig- Jan Johansen (Swedish)

När din väg är lĺng och du är trött
Men du mĺste ändĺ gĺ, mmm....
Och när skuggorna börjar växa och fĺ liv
Och när natten skrämmer sĺ
Är jag bredvid dig och jag följer varje steg du tar
Och hos dig stannar jag kvar

Sĺ se pĺ mig, ĺhĺ..., en hamn i stormen
Som en vĺg som fötts att bära dig
Ja, se pĺ mig, ĺhĺ..., i ljus och mörker
Är jag där och aldrig lämnar jag dig

När du stĺr en dag vid ett vägskäl i ditt liv
Som ett vilset litet barn
Är jag bredvid dig och jag följer varje steg du tar
Och hos dig stannar jag kvar

Sĺ se pĺ mig, ĺhĺ..., en hamn i stormen
Som en vĺg som fötts att bära dig
Ja, se pĺ mig, ĺhĺ..., i ljus och mörker
Är jag där och aldrig lämnar jag dig

Jag gĺr med dig vart du gĺr
Och aldrig lämnar jag dig

Sĺ se pĺ mig, ĺhĺ..., en hamn i stormen
Som en vĺg som fötts att älska dig
Ja, se pĺ mig, när ljuset blir till mörker i ditt liv
Är jag där och aldrig lämnar jag dig
Jag älskar dig sĺ

Look at me (Se pĺ mig- my own translation into english)

When your road is long and you are tired
But yet you have to walk, mmm…
And when the shadows begin to grow and come alive
And when the night time scares you so
I am beside you and I follow every step you take
And with you- I stay

So look at me, aha… a harbour in the storm
As a wave born to carry you
Yes, look at me, aha… in light and darkness
I am here and I will never let you go

When you stand one day by a cross road in your life
Like a little lost child
I am beside you and I follow every step you take
And with you- I stay

So look at me, aha… a harbour in the storm
As a wave born to carry you
Yes, look at me, aha… in light and darkness
I am here and I will never let you go

I will walk with you where ever you go
Never leaving you behind

So look at me, aha… a harbour in the storm
As a wave born to carry you
Yes, look at me, when the light turns into darkness in you life
I am there and I will never let you go
I love you so

Oh my dear sweet Nina, you give me strength everyday to go on. You who have so much on your own plate, take the time to check to see that I am still afloat. When I am the most needy, you know it. And you always come through. You are a true blessing and inspiration to all of us. No one can truely understand the feelings that we share.
Thank you! I have tried everything to cope...... I have tried everything to cope......

My Mom has been very sick, too. There are agencies that can send someone to take care of her for you. You can't do all of this alone.

I wish you peace and I hope that happiness comes peeking out at you very soon.

Hugs,

Jan

Hello All The Girls..... My mom is in a Nursing Home.... but I still care for her on a day to day basis. The doctor asked me if I wanted to put Nancy in a nursing home as well.... I told him no, she belongs home with me. Thanks for caring!
