Diary of a Carer...: Why is everyone so afraid of feelings?
http://diaryofacarer.blogspot.com/2009/06/why-is-everyone-so-afraid-of-feelings.html
Diary of a Carer. My mother has Alzheimers Disease. I am her carer. Share the up's and downs of our journey. Tuesday, June 2, 2009. Why is everyone so afraid of feelings? In my day job I spend a lot of time reassuring people that it's OK to have their feelings, whatever they may be. I create safe spaces for them to just feel, express and move on. There is no judgement. Simple really, just trying to write about my experience as a carer, from the inside out, not prettied up. I know she meant well. When I w...

Diary of a Carer. My mother has Alzheimers Disease. I am her carer. Share the up's and downs of our journey. Saturday, September 22, 2007. When I die I'm going to sit on a cloud all day and paint! Thats what my mum used to tell me growing up. She loved all things artistic. Finding activities that keep mum occupied but not overwhelmed can be a challenge. We stumbled upon something new yesterday when I was cutting up some leaflets for work. Drawings were proudly brought home to me when they were little.
Diary of a Carer...: The financial costs of caring $$$$$$
http://diaryofacarer.blogspot.com/2009/09/financial-costs-of-caring.html
Diary of a Carer. My mother has Alzheimers Disease. I am her carer. Share the up's and downs of our journey. Tuesday, September 15, 2009. The financial costs of caring $ $ $. Mums illness has cost us a lot of money. I estimate it set us back at least $50,000 in added costs and lost income. My mum had run up bills, lost her entire savings to a con man and had given away assets including the home. Dealing with the creditors was a nightmare. And no, I can't get anything back. Don't even mention respite care!

Diary of a Carer. My mother has Alzheimers Disease. I am her carer. Share the up's and downs of our journey. Saturday, April 25, 2009. Out of the blue. Things happen that just hit me hard. Yesterday I was busily reading my way through work emails, not thinking about mum at all. Then I opened an email from a bookshop:. Books for Mothers who love to read". I just felt myself getting all teary, in an instant it hit home that MY mum, MY. Mum who LOVED to read, can't read anymore. Make it come alive! The othe...

Diary of a Carer. My mother has Alzheimers Disease. I am her carer. Share the up's and downs of our journey. Wednesday, April 24, 2013. The Long Goodbye continues. In February I got another call from the nursing home. It was 1am in the morning and I could hear the phone ringing somewhere in the distance. I stumbled out to the lounge room and answered the phone with a groggy voice, trying as hard as I could to sound alert and sensible. We sit for the morning bedside vigil. I could be OK here, on my ow...

A Single Man: Learning to stay
http://asingleman.blogspot.com/2012/08/learning-to-stay.html
Musings, rants, heartaches, and commentary from a soon-to-be widower after 27 years with a wonderful man. Tuesday, August 07, 2012. I wrote this post awhile ago and I think that this is a good time to publish it. I've been reading a book, "The Places that Scare You," by Pema Chodron. While there is a lot of good stuff in the book, the key thing I'm learning is to stay with difficult feelings and not cower from them or medicate them away. The reality is that we just don't know how things will work out.

Musings, rants, heartaches, and commentary from a soon-to-be widower after 27 years with a wonderful man. Wednesday, August 01, 2012. One of my jobs. I came home last night and found the gas stove burner on. He managed to cook some eggs (even tho' I had made him some earlier.he "didn't see them"), but forgot to turn off the burner. I came home the night before and H had left the house, but left many windows open. "Well, at least I turned on the security alarm," he said. Now, this is all on top of a simpl...

Musings, rants, heartaches, and commentary from a soon-to-be widower after 27 years with a wonderful man. Tuesday, April 22, 2014. More of the same. Gentle readers, it has been a very long time since I've written as for the past year or so, it has been relatively quiet here…relatively. And, I haven't had much news to share…. My therapist tells me that H would be better off in an adult family home because he would have social contact, someone to help with his care, and a whole new set of people to enterta...
A Single Man: March 2012
http://asingleman.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Musings, rants, heartaches, and commentary from a soon-to-be widower after 27 years with a wonderful man. Thursday, March 01, 2012. Detox or wires in the spine. The current scary thing is that he is topping out on how much pain medication they can give him for his neuropathy. His tolerance is high after 15 years on narcotics and in any case, you only have so many receptors that the opiates can bind to and reduce the pain. So increasing the dose won't work anymore.

wits' end: turbulence ahead

Walking into a dark wood, but marking a trail on the way. Sunday, 25 April 2010. I had a phone ca. Ll on Thursday to tell me that Mum had "had a fall" just outside her room and was on her way to hospital to be x-rayed. I was tempted to get in the car straight away but I was advised to wait until the results were in. It turned out that there were no broken bones and Mum was back by the evening. I resolved to drive over on Friday. Life in the household is very calm these days. A couple of the more trou...
wits' end: Hallowe'en Fright
http://wits-endgame.blogspot.com/2010/10/halloween-fright.html
Walking into a dark wood, but marking a trail on the way. Sunday, 31 October 2010. The phone rang a little after midnight. It was from the Care Home. Mum was on her way to Hospital. They told me that she had been throwing up, had suddenly gone very pale and clammy to the touch. They would call again if there was more news. How long would she have been left like this until someone had noticed? I began to panic about the future and how I would cope when Mum was more seriously ill. By the time I had to leav...

Walking into a dark wood, but marking a trail on the way. Wednesday, 17 November 2010. Eight years ago now. This story had already begun. I was concerned by Mum's vulnerability, but I had no idea. no idea. 17 November 2010 at 08:13:00 GMT. I wasnt sure about posting this, whether maybe I should leave the news of Mums death as the final entry for the blog. Ive placed it here on a gut feeling - seeking to remember Mum in life rather than in death. 17 November 2010 at 11:19:00 GMT. Hold onto this is the com...

Walking into a dark wood, but marking a trail on the way. Wednesday, 10 November 2010. Poetry on ward 3. It's Mum's last full day in Hospital today. When I arrive, she smiles at me and asks: "Didn't you know I was in here? She doesn't remember my other visits. I take comfort from the thought that at least she knows she is in a Hospital today. I stroke her hand. She seems to like that. Soon her eyelids are drooping and she is asleep. There are 3 other ladies in the room, having a conversation about favour...

Diary of A Carb Lover and More
Monday, July 8, 2013. Ever feel stretched thin? Physically I feel like a thick post. And maybe just as stiff. This past weekend was one of those weekends that seems long and short all at the same time. I was always on the go; got very little sleep; didn't get the chores I wanted to do done. Our one kitten injured her leg. I've been working more on core lately too. Everything from my chest down hurts. Thankfully today is my rest day. I feel like I need it. Wednesday, July 3, 2013. We kicked off our summer...

Diary of a Catholic Geek – “There are no uninteresting things, only uninterested people.” ― G.K. Chesterton
Diary of a Catholic Geek. There are no uninteresting things, only uninterested people. G.K. Chesterton. One day I was getting ready to leave to give a talk to a group of high school students, and my little sister asked me what I was bringing. When I showed her the books in my bag, each one brought me to a new level of Catholic Geek-dom. (Because apparently it’s not normal to carry around a copy of the Code of Canon Law when you go to give talks.). Create a free website or blog at WordPress.com.
