Finished dinner, now watching Hockey game

 

[ccs29745]

Watching tv, thread surfing

 

[EasyBrad59]

relaxing, perusing threads here, wondering if anything good is on TV

 

[TunnelKing089]

National Lampoon Christmas Vacation on AMC I can watch this and instantly laugh.

I’m trying to convince my mom to eat.

I’m trying to convince my mom to eat.

Dang I feel bad for you - they need to eat for the strength and stamina. But then if they are not feeling too fantastic they lose their appetite. I convinced my mom to start drinking Ensure to get some protein daily after she broke her knee and had surgery. It’s a vicious circle for them with the appetite.

I’m trying to talk her into a protein shake. I’ve offered to make her favorite soups. Mashed potatoes, grits, toast….anything!

Yep - I get it. My mom would eat two bites of eggs or mashed potatoes - push away the plate. I’m full. I can’t eat. I’d plead with her - you need to eat because you complain you’re so weak. And she was weak. It’s hard. I feel for you. I truly do.

 

[NeonSubtlety]

Worrying.

Damn, for a second I thought this was an “above you” thread, and found myself wondering “am I that transparent?”

Whatchu worrying about?

I got her to eat half a turkey sandwich. I’m thrilled. All she had eaten today was 1/2 a hard boiled egg.

Thank you for listening

Little victories. Just the attention you’re paying her is an incredible service — even if she can’t appreciate it the way she would in better times, others do, I’m sure.

It’s also inspirational. I think about this scenario all the time and reading about self-sacrifice in service to one’s aging parents helps prepare me for the coming years.

It is really more than we are ever prepared for…especially emotionally. It’s a lot but I’m glad I have the privilege.

I think about what you’re going through in the same way that I take in the words that one should be judged on how they act when no one is looking.

I’ve had to think about his recently…and I hope I have the integrity and strength to serve my folks even when they’re too far gone to register/appreciate it.

Just posting posting posting. Pretty new here, don't really know anybody.

I like being online here though, gives me a sexy little buzz on top of my bud high. I'm kinda touching myself a little. Definitely having fun!

Figuring out a late-ish dinner; the day got away from me.

I’m about to eat BBQ chicken pizza!

Everyone is finally fed and I’m staying warm in my couch but I didn’t make cookies last night so maybe I’ll make them tonight.
