... how do you say goodbye to someone who's body is still here but he's mind is pretty much gone?
I've experienced deep grief before, but this is something different. I've never been grieving someone who's still sitting next to me.
How do you cope with this?
How do you approach this?
Honestly, any words of wisdom will be much appreciated 🙏❤️
On another hand, I'm sitting here and thinking about his life, how he lived it, and the regrets he had (at least the ones I know about).
And... I know I want to live a different life.
I want to be more present, more loving and caring, more spontaneous, more living in a moment, more giving (if I can be any more giving 😉).
The relationship with my Dad has been an interesting one, but I know he's done his best.
And I'm super grateful because it made me the person I am today 🙏
Seriously how do you say goodbye to someone you love with Dementia and Alzheimer's, someone who's just fading away day by day?
It's heartbreaking!
Mindful wishes,
