Happy Mother's Day Mom

Post by maryanimal » Thu May 10, 2012 5:51 pm

First off, I love you Mommy and I miss you. I won't be able to see you this sunday, but I'll be there next Saturday! I hope you still remember me mom. Its been 7 months since I've seen you. I know your dementia has you confused, but I know you're still in there. I'll be staying three days mom. We can walk around the garden there and enjoy the sunshine. I also have a surprize for you! I'm bringing your favorite! KFC! And a box of La Florentine Torrone, plus some See's candy! I have a few new outfits for you to try on and some really soft, comfy socks!

I'm so excited about coming to see you. I see Frank and Joanne came to see you! I hope you had a good visit with them. Well, mommy, I just called you and you're eating dinner. I'll be calling back a bit later!

All my love.

Mary Ann

I'm so glad for you that you get to see her this weekend.... I know how hard it's been on you to be so far from her.

Enjoy every second.

((((((((delle))))))) It's so nice to see you!! I'll be able to see her more often now! I wrote this thread for anyone who wants to say something to their mom! It can be poignant, funny, whatever anyone wants to say!!

Sorry (((MA))) if I am messing up your thread here but, I'm sure I'm going straight to hell anyway so I might as well get my ticket punched now.




Mother of mine, I am real sorry about your "memory disorder," because I hoped after Dad died that I was done with you. But, I am a good person, I have professional training and expertise, and I love my siblings, so I will continue to wear myself out helping to keep you in that absurdly huge waterfront home until the Alzheimer's claims what is left of your mind.

I mailed you a card yesterday, and I am working tomorrow, so I might or might not make the mandatory phone call. Happy Mother's Day!

Yep (((Yggy))) it's not easy. But I don't have to live with her forever; I just have to live with myself. 8)

Oh man, I would skip this test if I could. Life is Pass/Fail anyway, isn't it? I know I'm never gonna get an "A" in daughtering. :roll:
