2025 you have been a wild ride thus far.. Everytime I think it’s about to slow down for a minute for me to catch my breath I’m hit with another curve ball… this week we have finally reached the finish line of clearing out my dads old place and now he’s settling into a wonderful retirement spot close to us… the change has had a lot of challenges, big emotions & hard decisions to be made… he’s safe now and on a new routine & a lot more cognitively with it… Dealing with dementia is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to try tackle and honestly I know it’s not going to get any easier.. it’s so hard being the bad guy to everyone when no one fully knows the entire picture but are quick to judge and attack.. now that he is safe and the big task is done it’s time for me to recover… being in and out of the hospital with my dad and my weakened immune system has taken a toll & wound me back up again with double pneumonia for the second time since February 🙃🫣. This time my oxygen levels did drop and I feared I would have to go back into the hospital but I remained calm, monitored and did the things I needed to do to heal and Recover. Fear not!! I am on the mend & now that this big storm of tackling the big move is done I’m able to sit and reflect… heal and recharge my batteries…. 2025 is all about big change… so much change has already happened and there is so much more to come! I want to thank everyone the last few months who have been there… I wouldn’t have been able to do this with out your support. Adulting is hard! But having an amazing community, family & friends is making it possible when show up to the storm and shine their light to light up the darkness.. thank you for being there to everyone who’s been there for us.
