Getting old, gloomy or gold!!

The gloomy sunset reminds me of old age. The darkness symbolizes the dark side of human life.

When I am watching my mom going through dementia. She is 73, but the way her health is declining is so bitterly painful for all of us, especially for my daughter, who is the apple of an eye of her grandmother!!

I have five sisters, and each of us is responding to this issue in her own unique way!!

We have always seen her very strong from the time we opened our eyes. Perhaps that's the reason we feel very sad when we find her getting more vulnerable and helpless as the days are passing by!!

I think we all are helpless in front of nature. Nature is very powerful. It transforms a cute baby into a youthful teenager and then from a passionate young man to a decent gentleman, and then finally slowly and gradually, the process of decline begins.

Sometimes, I ponder deeply on the phenomenon of old age. Yes, it's a bitter truth, but we all have to experience this episode of our lives. Are we brave enough to face this bitter truth of life?

I pray from the depth of my heart that may God give me an easy exit from life, not after experiencing a lot of pain and misery.

My ideal old age is a very healthy and fit one in which we get a lot of spare time to spend with our grandchildren and old friends , indulging into wonderful hobbies and recreation!!

We all have our own unique vision of an ideal old age. Lets see what nature has in store for us at this phase of life!!

All my sisters want to contribute to the caring of elderly mom. We all work as a teem and also a lot of individual efforts going on to help mom cope with her condition.

One of my sisters is dealing with medical issues. The doctors visits, medicine setting, and consulting the doctor in case of any complaints.

Me, being a stay at home mom, having a grown-up daughter , sharing the same house with my parents, giving her company and support most of the time.

I have two sisters living nearby. The youngest sister helps part-time to care for her, and the other one helps during emergencies.

Last but not least , my dad also takes a great part in supporting my mom!! How amazing to see my dad being very fit at the age of 75 and also helping mom by giving her company and arranging her medicines!!

Watching my own Mother slowly succumb to dementia is so heartbreaking yet at the same time it was the precious time we had left together that we squared away our past differences and issues to restore our relationship of parent and child. It's awesome that your siblings agreed to take turns providing care, my siblings were exceptional into contributing a part.

Getting older is not always an easy road and having dementia makes it even more so. I am glad that your family is taking an active and sharing role in the care of your mom. I don't think it's easy for the ones who have dementia, for at least in the beginning, they see it happening and realize what's in store.

>I pray from the depth of my heart that may God give me an easy exit from life, not after experiencing a lot of pain and misery.

I too pray for this for myself as well. I completely understand. It takes courage to get older-at least I am finding it to be that way.

Thank you for sharing; blessings to you and your family. Take care! !LADY

That is nothing but the sad reality of life which we all must face and understand. Sometimes the very thought of getting older get many sick. Before my dad past away just six weeks ago, the pain he experienced around his waist and leg - though not the actual cause of the death - some how makes me feel bitter, but life must move on.
