in Caring For a Spouse or Partner

Hi friends. I just wanted to stop by to let you know I still think of you all the time. I hope you can find at least a little enjoyment through the holidays, and I wish everyone a better new year. It might seem like an odd thing to say, but I miss you guys and gals, and I know I'm better off not being here every day. Two and a half years in stage 8.

    I’m sure I can say for many of us that we miss you, but are happy for you and where you are in life. Merry Christmas.

    Merry Christmas, Ed. The beauty of this forum is that it is always available when needed. Stage 4 or 8, you’ve people here who understand what you are going through and have been through. Caring for and holding space for a passed loved one with Alzheimer’s is torturously beautiful. You made a difference here. All the best to you in the New year as you soldier on.

    Merry Christmas, Ed. I think of you often, probably because I feel like I'm your "neighbor".

    I hope you've had a good holiday with your family.
