Hi Jd,
Thanks for responding.
yes they look similar, except the one I'm using(I didn't think of printing it off the website), doesn't have symptoms that are physical.
It was calming, as I tried to relax my popcorn brain during the long day, supporting mom, as the summer comes to the end, and I feel I'm in this little room with her. I do take breaks, though, and they have computers, so I can do simple things. And simple things are all my brain can handle.
The place had a movie too, which gave my brain some stimulation, which I feel we both need. I want to turn on her tv, but she just doesn't want it on....it's part of her homelife(previoius to the illness) so I thought she'd love her soap opera, but I don't wish to anger her.
Maybe it's her way of being controlling, since it's so hard for her to even move much now...
At one point, I felt I wish I could give her my life...but then realized...I have made sacrifices of my time for years.
So I can sleep better, now.
