I’m terribly sad and just want to vent

| OP, the way you describe your bond is the same I had with my dad. My father has been gone for years and I still miss him, but sadness doesn't overwhelm me like it did leading up to and following his death. I see how much we were alike, and it feels like "our team" is still going through me and my life. Spend time with him. Love him. Grieve. Rest assured that you're honoring him. |

My mom has Alzheimer’s and I found I just had to accept it and live in the moment and enjoy the now with her, because it will only get worse.
It’s a terrible grief but all you can do is try not to zoom your mind to the future but instead focus on the now. My mom is pretty far along but I can still make her laugh and still find things with her that bring her pleasure in the moment, even if she won’t remember them and that’s enough for me right now. |
