Aging
So sorry I haven't posted in awhile. We have had some family drama going on. Alzhiemer's disease runs on my mom's side of the family and normally skips a generation. My great grandmother had it, my grandmother didn't, and we now think my mom is getting it. My father is in denial and not getting her the help she needs and she is acting more and more irrational and, for lack of a better word, weird. It has been really freaking me out. It has put strain on the relationship between them and Joe and I again and between Sara's family and my mom and dad. It is not fun. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. She is trying to convience Sara and I that, for many unusual and 'makebelieve' situations she percieves, that Jaden and Dagon would be better off if they no longer lived with us, but with her at her house. ??????? I made a apt. for her against her will, and my father's, for Monday. I don't understand why my father isn't trying to get her help. Joe and I have struggled with this thought all week, but we feel it is better that we step in to get her the medical help/treatments she needs if my dad is going to continue to ignore it. She can't even remember how to get around her neighborhood. So we just ask that you all keep us in your prayers and my parents. This is not a easy situation for my dad either. I know he must be overwhelmed with this all also. I pray God gives us the wisdom to help her and my dad. On another note. My pregnancy is now around 6 weeks and still no morning sickness. YIPPIE! I have already felt some stretching. Weird huh. I didn't feel anything like that till my 6th month with Jaden. Everyone keeps telling me that the 2nd and 3rd on happens much faster. If thats the case, I'm going to be HUGE!!!!! ha ha. Well, I love you and Jaden is sitting in my lap right now saying he loves everyone also. God bless you all!
