[quote=Anonymous]It’s sad. My mom is in her 80s and declining. I have to remind her to brush her teeth, wash her hair with shampoo, put on underwear before getting dress. I have to dry her hair and style it. Put on a little make up. Help her put on her shoes, get out of the car. She is very sweet. She smiles. Growing up, she was very opinionated and feisty, now she is not. She is definitely a different person. Almost not my mom but is still my mom. I loved her. She’s my mom. It can be exhausting. I’m lucky that I have siblings and we take turns. [/quote]
