My sis is forgoing her share of the inheritance as she is getting a lot from her in laws anyway...so we can put her in a home should Dad die first.

This is hard. Even though she made my childhood a living hell I still love her. She is the main reason I Have excepted abuse in the past...seemed normal to me after being raised that way.

But she carried me in her womb and gave birth to me and did TRY to be a good mother...I do still love her.

Yesturday she asked me 10x what color the kids cat is. She can't remember anything for even 2 minutes...we are thinking the motor skills won't be around much longer now and its scary.

Unfortunatly none of us want to take her in as she is still mean and spitefull.

I have a friend who works disecting Cadavers

She said and I quote: I have cut open peoples arm pits and there is this blueish grey slime...that is from Aluminum anti persperant...so I stopped using it...

(it causes Alzheimers)

So I got this arm and hammer stuff and some baby powder...(I am half german and its the stinky half believe me) and it works better than the aluminum stuff! I suggest you go get some if you use that crap and stop today.

Oh aluminum based deodorant is HORRIBLY poisonous. Along with causing Alzheimer's it's the leading cause of breast cancer, imo.

I'm sorry to hear about your momma. Even if she wasn't good to you always it's hard to not love your parent.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to your mother. We just never know what lies in our future. I'm also sorry that you are going through this. Emotionally it brings back so much and it's never easy when we have had a negative and or abusive history with the person who may need our help in the future for their ailment. I suppose at times like this we have to find inner strength and look beyond what has transpired, for our own sanity and to be able to give compassion.

[Onyx]

So sorry to hear about your mom. She is fortunate to have family who will assure she is cared for.

[Homicidalheathen]

She is either in Denial or Can't remember the doctor visit where they told her...my dad said, 'no I was there he said its alz...and my mom calls it her 'memory problems'...

Kinda sad, she can't remember to take her meds...coarse she pulls that one when she wants to get high and takes over the amount too so we were not sure for awhile...

I'm very sorry to hear this, HH. My father's mother went from Alzheimer's, and it wrenching to watch her deteriorate.

Hang in there hon.

[SuZQZ]

HH, I am so sorry to hear that your mom was diagnosed with this terrible condition. I will be keeping you and your family in my thoughts.

[Black Jack (1)]

I'm feel you pain from the relatives of whom in my family died to that very disease. Good, bad, ugly or cute seems to be beside the point cause I spent all my spare time learning about them before there passing. You have my condolences and my respect.

I'm sorry to hear about your mom. From what I've read about Alzheimers, it's one of the slowest tortureous ways to die. Type in 'harmful household cleaners' in the search and it'll really open your eyes to how deadly these so-called "harmless" chemicals can be.

[TygerLili]

I missed this somehow the first time. Sorry to hear this news!

[graverobber]

get some phytaloe from Mannatech and some Manapol also

for your mom, general non toxic, tonic agents.

-yeah-

not too expensive

-I'm rather angry with Mannatech inc for making a menagerie, a plethora of confusing and rather useless

products-

I am a Mannatech associate, though I don't make money or really care to

not much of a salesman, I'm not.

though I can say that phytaloe is good and

Manapol -direct from Carrington laboratories, not from Mannatech

-it's ridiculously expensive through them-

yeah, those are good, for sick people.
