Thank you for sharing this journey with us, Devon. I understand the relief and happiness you feel for Janet. I too felt that for my mom as I held her hand while she died. You are right in that it takes having gone through that journey of a loved one to understand why you feel happiness. Take good care of yourself while going through this next journey of grief.
I'll always remember all the fun times Janet and I had with a big smile.
Thank you for sharing this journey. As always, you put things into words so powerfully. Longtime follower sending you love and strength as you continue to navigate the road ahead. 💜
The waves are real. Anger, sadness, joy, - emotions you didn’t think would be possible all at the same time. Alzheimer’s is profoundly unfair and awful so the solace of knowing the suffering has ended for your person is truly a weird peace. Take it all in and know that each moment - however weird or sudden - is because you loved so much.
Your mom and your family are lucky to have you. This journey is not one any of us choose, but how you choose to deal with it says so much about your character. I am confident your mom is bragging about you to all the angels in heaven.
Thank you for sharing all this Devon. The pictures are so wonderful (and I know what you mean because I so rarely watched that second VHS tape). I so look forward to hearing every chapter when it’s time.
