Hello! I’m in bad need of some advice. My Mom passed away on January 4th and my Dad, who is in the middle stage of Alzheimer’s, is really struggling.

Sometime I'll have time To properly mourn When people stop asking What year you were born But my time is your time For however long You need me to turn on You favorite song I wake you up gently We'll do it together I write down the day And the time and the weather I carry your books While you search for your name On the…
