Seeing Mom again by myself

Hello, so this is the second week that I have seen my mom alone again. It was tough before I saw her today, so I took some CBD oil. I don't know if it helped.

Nevertheless, I remembered what a couple of members said to me last week. I cannot control if my Mother passes away or not. So now I focus on the things I can control. A member from here also said to think about what my mother would want me to do to be happy. I took that advice, updated my resume and am having interviews to find a first of all Full Time job and secondary more money. I have been struggling with my current job but also waiting for mom to pass is trying to control things.

I am so grateful for Alzconnect and all the members on here. Just a FYI, I started going on this wonderful site, right after I see my Mom. It's a blessing!! God bless everyone on here!

Thanks

    Very good news!! Wishing you the best of luck in the job hunt!

    By the way, I'm the on who suggested that you think of what your mother would want you to do, and you told me to get my cataracts done, which is what my DH would want me to do. Well, I'm happy to report that my cataract surgeries are scheduled for June 19 and July 1.
