Thank you for your strength. I’m in your same situation. My Dad is going through chemo and my mom has Alzheimer’s. My mom also went to a rehab facility and thought it was jail. You are 100% right. This is so freaking hard.

Oh, so sorry to hear Praying for both your mom and dad and your strength to get through. It is so hard. 🙏

Had 1st colonoscopy a couple weeks ago. Prep was brutal. One benign polyp so won't have to undergo that again for 10 years. Watched my mom deal with my grandma with dementia for many years. Such an awful disease.

That is wonderful news on the polyp🙏 dementia is really really hard to deal with and definitely plays a mental toll on all involved.

I had mine 9 years ago I have to get another one next year .they me laxatives and told me to buy yellow jello and gator aid . Surprised they gave purple garb . I had breast cancer so had to have one at 52. My Mom had dementia. My Dad lived until 93 .❤️💕

The stuff was actually clear, I just tastes like grape. Praying you are clear next year!

How is your Dad doing? My prayers are with you guys!😇I wish I was there to give you a great Big Hug, I'm sorry you're all going through all of this it's hard!

[@lifewithamy2024]

Hi, Lynne! Thanks for asking he is actually doing great! Just had a scan and it came back cancer free and played his first round of fold this week!🙏

Getting old isn’t fun. My friend got Alzheimer’s before she was 60. It took her kids a year to find a place that’s over a hour away. She is still alive after 10 years in there but is withering away. It’s so sad. The hospital should have helped you find a place if she couldn’t come home. Chemo brain takes a while to get over so I hope you see improvement in your dad soon. Thinking of you and hoping it gets better.

Oh, thank you for that info on chemo brain. I have been praying it is no longer term. 🙏
