. I always kind of thought if you had kids you would possibly have > someone to oversee care, but even that is not always true. > Ray > Ray I have two lovely children and two wonderful in-law kids, yet I can't and don't expect them to be available to care for Jamie. They do help on occasion, but caregiving is a singular responsibility. My friends offer to help constantly - however, they are often intimidated by Jamie's dementia. We have poker games here where the guys from our church come to bring him some joy. After watching these wonderful folks struggle trying to get Jamie to participate in the game, I have finally agreed to join in. That way, he gets to socialize, the guys aren't uncomfortable, and I get to take their money. ------- God bless Mary Ann (CG Jamie 65/25) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
