I have not...WOW Connie...this was a wonderful read. I have not experienced the loss of my mom. But my best friend, my grandmother had Alzheimer's Disease. <br /><br />It was like she got to a certain stage in her life, then she started going backwards. In the end she could no longer take care of herself. It was up to me to take care of her. It was one of the worse jobs I've ever had. Don't get me wrong, I loved her dearly...but the demands on a person who has to take care of someone suffering from this disease, is tremendous.<br /> <br />Thank you so much for sharing this.Angela Goodsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4131464584198564294.post-39608201529261979062010-05-20T21:27:21.942-04:002010-05-20T21:27:21.942-04:00Dear Deemus: I'm so glad something resonated ...Dear Deemus: I'm so glad something resonated for you here and made a difference.

Its help...Connie, thanks for sharing your journey. Its helped me in dealing with my own grief. For a couple months after my mom died, I had a hard time getting out of bed in the morning. <br /><br />Just as I was about to get medicated for my depression, it seemed to lift. I still have times when I mourn for her, or for myself. But I know as a believer I will get to see her again. <br /><br />Thanks for your raw emotion. Blessings to you.deemusnoreply@blogger.com
