Gender: Female

My sweet mama passed away on Nov. 30th, 2010. I had taken care of her for over 5 years in her home. She had Alzheimer's, diabetes, and a heart condition. I am going through the grieving process and adjusting to a new life and it's a real struggle. I am hoping that what I have learned through this experience can help others on this site. I recently lost my mother-in-law to cancer. She was 61 years old.

On My Mind...

We must appreciate our lives and those that are in it that love us and care what happens to us. Love them and tell them you love them...
