Although it was early for me back then, I had to go to bed when my mother did, sometimes as early as 6:30. I never knew how soon she might be up wandering the house. And I was usually so exaustef that I could fall asleep quickly.
These days I’m wanting to go to bed at 6:30. I get up at 4:00 to do my knee exercises (had knee replacements in 2020 and 2022) before getting ready for work.
Yes I still work, not because I have to, but because I love my work. I turned 40 while I was my mother’s caregiver, and later this year I will turn 70.
Maybe it’s making a comeback. I started it 29 years ago, in 1996, just after my mother passed away. It’s not popular like it was back then, but I guess a few people still find it worth a visit. If you find yourself there, feel free to enjoy all the photos and my mother’s story as well as maybe find some helpful information if you know someone who has Alzheimer’s or another dementia. Be sure to sign my guestbook before you leave so that it won’t be deactivated again because of inactivity.
Note: I’m still behind on updating it. I really need to add a page of my 2024 Walk to End Alzheimer’s photos. Maybe I’ll get that done during Spring Break.
