My mom is soo special to me. I am what I am today all because of her. I owe her soo much and I want to buy her a Benz after i graduate.

Just wondering, how much do you guys love your mother? :music:
 
i really think there should be one between "i can do without" and "better than my wife" , i mean i dont want her dead nor do i want a mother in lui of a wife.

Good for you. She's a lucky lady and you're a lucky guy/gal.

Thanks.

There is really no other choice other than to put her in a nursing home. Since she has dementia, it wouldn't be at all good for her . . . and since I have no bros or sisters to share . . . I am working parttime and have outside help a couple of days a week . . .

fortunately she SLEEPS at night (like a baby), so i have a (night)life to myself (and can monitor her, when i am away)

i always tell her, If she doesn't like the care I am giving her, it is because of the way she raised me . . .

the hell do u do that you can afford a Benz (im gussing new) right out of college( again im assuming college as Junior high makes 0 sense)?
 
You can't really compare the love of a mother with the love of a wife... or a child... or a sibling... etc.

And if you can, I think you are in dire need of therapy!

You just got extra special kudos from HappyPuppy. My father died just a few years ago after battling severe demtia for years.

The bad: He finally got so bad I couldn't take care of him 24/7 and had to put him in a nursing home. I visited him every day.

The good: Although he had no history of heart problems he had a massive heart attack 2 months into his nursing home care.

The bad: I had to tell the doctor to withhold any life sustaining medical care.

The good: He died almost immediately after stopping the drug injections that were keeping his heart pumping.

Good luck with your mom.

Thanks for the kind words and your personal experience.

I know my mom will eventually require care in a nursing home. My hope is that when she finally goes in she wont know where she is and will be near her end. In the meantime, I am trying to give her as much dignity and freedom as I can manage.

i also know how important it is to take of onself during the time one is taking care of another. 😉

 
Don't much care for my parents. Dad walked out at the age of four and have not seen him since. I got stuck with a depressed/angry raging bitch/young and not so smart lady who blames everything on her past. I've never understood how anyone could pay respect to parents, mine were such horrible figures growing up and while I could have had it much worse I'm sure, it's pretty tough forgive a person who still pisses you off immensely every time your around them.

You can't help but feel they've (parents) wronged you in some way, and every time you see one of them a spark of hate hits you, making a relationship impossible. It disgusts me to think of being greatfull to either of them, I'm 19 though and hopefully I still have alot of learning to do.

She's made life tough and has shown no change/remorse over the years, sure she cried a little and "said" she wished she had done things differently or how she wished she could give me everything I wanted, not an ounce of me thinks she means it though, as she grew spitefull towords me when I made plans to move out of the house. Wish I could love the lady but she just isn't a person I could see myself caring about anytime soon.

Consider yourself very lucky if you have it good with your parents people, from what I've heard of other peoples stories, it's not all to common these days.
