You all know I cared for my DF (Parkinson's disease), DMIL (congestive heart failure) and FIL (hip fractures) for several years. Well, my older DD has just taken her in-laws into her home, at least temporarily, and tells me I am her shining example and primary care-giver-information resource.
I'm sad for her, because her relationship with her in-laws is nowhere near as loving and close as mine was with my in-laws, but she is a trooper!
We just had a long conversation on how best to include herself in discussions with their primary-care physicians, to be sure all instructions are being followed, etc. I know she'll do well, and fortunately it should be short-term, as they have their home on the market and will move into an assisted living situation as soon as their capital is freed up. Still, this is hard on her as she still has young children at home, I did not.
Beverly, finishing off the two remaining skirts for DGD's Highland dance teacher today, so I can get to projects I really *want* to do.
