1. I only took 2 pictures yesterday, mostly because they frown on taking photos at the hospital, where I spent most of my day. 12 hr shifts.
2. I did take a picture of the sunset as I was driving home.
3. Yes unusual and it means a big deal to my whole family. Those 12 hr shifts I've been working will be a thing of the past. Next week I will start working 6-2:30 Mon-Fri. Very few shifts like this in nursing. I am very grateful to the nurse Who is letting me take this shift instead of taking it herself.
4. Daily activities- rushing through a shower to get to work on time, because I was reading a thread on reddit...."I don't get paid enough for this sh*t"

I am a little embarrassed. I bought the mother load of doodlebug stuff yesterday. The same alphas as another poster put up, but in every color they had as well as some cute brads packs. I spent $68, it's the most I've ever spent for sb supplies at TM. I'll post a pic when I get home.

DD is the reason I posted a couple weeks ago about fall new releases. I was glad there were lots to choose from because it made picking my papers easy. I went with the Simple stories collection from last year called Cozy Christmas. This will be my first after years of drooling over others.

I have on moment I live with everyday. I wish I had asked or said the right thing to my brother the day before he took his life. I was the last sibling to speak to him & I failed him by not saying the right words. This will haunt me until end of days. I have the same issues,. I failed my brother in such a huge way.

Have you checked out the Button Farm club. They do a mini book every month. Her directions are great. And the finished results are gorgeous.

I can finally play along. I've done about 40 pages so far this year. I am loving digital project life along with using up my kits.

Some of these came from the last week of June and I was lucky to get a couple of things. I had to rummage through the bins they had set out for stocking!

yeah, I got a little confused by your title and your post. to me, "right to die" is on the patient's terms and the patient's decision. unfortunately, your mom's condition precludes her from this. aside from that, I'm sorry for the stress you are going through. being a caregiver can be the hardest and most selfless thing one can do for another human being. my friend did it for both of her parents who each had dementia or Alzheimer disease. it certainly blurred the relationship lines between caregiver and child. when she was unable to care for them anymore and had to move them to a facility, not having the physical and emotional stress of the daily caregiving helped to restore the parent/child relationship. I saw my friend wither during those years she cared for her parents. she was anxious, became depressed, didn't eat, didn't sleep, was exhausted all the time. she a million years in that time. take care of yourself. find time for yourself. I didn't think she could make this decision either. I want her to keep fighting to live. I want to keep her alive as long as possible. She may be near the end, but she isn't dead yet. I want her to see that. I want to take her places and do fun stuff together even if it's just for an hour. I don't care about the little stuff, wearing 3 watches or what have you, just the screaming at me I want to stop. I did talk to my dad and he was really helpful. I felt a lot better after talking to him. She is the same way with him. I am jealous, too. I have customers who are 90 and are driving themselves to shop. Why isn't she going to live to be 90, too? Because life isn't fair. Anyway, if I keep posting on this I will keep crying do you guys go ahead and post if you want or let the tread die. (The funny thing is I saw my other son this morning==DS' BFF and I drove him grocery shopping. Then I saw a friend of mine and translated for her. Then went grocery shopping and found the best cinnamon bun ever and then DS called and he got a job at Honda!) then came home to screaming... Peace out. As a hospice nurse I am in your mom's corner. Though she may have Dementia she knows what's coming...her death. She is trying to get you comfortable with it. What you are doing is for you, it is not honoring her or her life.
