We had one good day without experiencing sundowning. I know I wouldn't wish this disease on anyone, not even an enemy. But this sundowning is starting to get on my last nerve!
One morning, we didn't start off on the right foot and I needed to walk away and pray. As I walked into another room, my pastor called to see how we were doing. Let me tell you, God is truly watching us and He knew I needed someone to pray for me at that moment.
In saying that, He knows what our love ones need and He places us there for them, even when we have no clue of what we're doing. We are all imperfect. Yes, there is help out there and most can not afford it or qualify for the help. There always seem to be something attached to what appears to be free, that you won't be able to qualify for.
This week has not been that bad so far. Am I irritated at times, yes and I got to deal with my impatientness. There are so many out there trying to tell you how to handle your love one, but guess what, each one is different. My mother, although was married, but was very independent, strong willed, worried and stress too much over the years, and it is even stronger now with dementia. So I am at a loss, and I guess that is why I make so many mistakes with her.
Waiting for a change...
