<p>[QUOTE=&quot;1865King, post: 6658721, member: 103207&quot;]I know what you mean.&nbsp; My grandmother that I was very close with spent the last 8 years of her life in bed in a nursing home.&nbsp; Her mind was perfect but, her body gave out.&nbsp; We would go visit her every Sunday.&nbsp; After a while I could almost feel a person was about to die just by looking at their face.&nbsp; Last year my father was in and out of a nursing home for almost a year.&nbsp; When he was home I had to help him everyday to get him out of bed and in bed.&nbsp; Even though I brought in help for him there were days I was at his house 4 times a day.&nbsp; The sad part was with Covid is I couldn&#039;t visit him when he was in the hospital or nursing home.&nbsp;&nbsp; He died on 12-30-2020 just short of turning 95.&nbsp; My mother is still at home and is 93 but failing.&nbsp; The worst part of the year was my aunt that was almost 95 died in October so I had to tell my mother her sister died in October and then tell her my father died on Dec. 30th.&nbsp; I thank God my father was home when I had to tell her sister died.&nbsp; Oh I almost forgot my father&#039;s younger sister (92) died Jan.2, 2020.&nbsp; Three in one year.&nbsp; My in laws are both still alive but their not well either (91 &amp; 88).&nbsp; Hopefully, I get a break for year but, I doubt.&nbsp; Bottom line treat the old folks well.&nbsp; I also advise if there is something you would like to know about them ask them before it&#039;s to late.&nbsp; Once their gone their story is gone too.&nbsp; There is a lot they tell you if only you ask.&nbsp; Sorry about the book I just wrote but, it&#039;s so important ask those hard questions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
