Same Day, different post!
Things only went down hill from that appointment on!
First I stopped at Great Harvest and got us some comfort food...
next...
We went to the Alzheimer's Association for the support group.
Today mom will go into the cognitive learning group.
She and I are only separated by a single wall.
But she freaked out.
They came and got me.
Mom, her face flushed and in a frenzy insisted I take her out of there!
She was crying and having a tantrum.
I didn't know where you were.
I thought you left me here.
I felt stupid, there were so many men, I couldn't do what they were doing.
These words don't flow easily from her mouth.
She cries and cries the rest of the day and night.
Please don't tell Jackie about this.
What, the Alzheimer's meeting?
NO, that I have Alzheimer's.
Coming to grips with mortality!
That night I have a horrible dream.
I dream that I am in a house with John and I can see the waves of the ocean swell - a tsunami.
The water is is rising and flooding the house We are being lifted up to the ceiling.
I am able to see out a whole in the roof.
I can see the water is starting to recede.
I awoke in pure panic.
