I am just trying to hold on and let my AH do what he does and not react. But boy is he pushing my buttons this am. He was supposed to get up at six (my son had to wake him) and take our son to his SATs. I t o l d him the time frame he had planned was cutting it close, but does he listen? Well it is out of my hands, I just don't want our son to pay the price.
THEN, ok, tell me if I am over reacting, he says in a conversational/amused way- "oh, I just got an e-mail that said "Are you my dad?". Is that supposed to be funny to me? Is even the possibility that that could be true supposed to amuse me? I said n o t h i n g.
Anyway, I'll go to a meeting later. It's rainy and overcast and chilly. But I am up early and that will make my weekend just that much longer, so good for me!
Hi D, my experience was,when the disease was talking, it meant zero.I gave it no thought at all.It is like talking or reacting to a cancerous tumor.
So I would continue with my life and ignore it.It is hard at first becuz we see who we think is our loved one.In reality it is a disease controlling our loved one.
It starts to come natural to ignore it in time hon.
YES come here, meetings,chat room, pm's. Also get out there and do something fun!
