What a summer we have had! Good and bad The good is the 2 vacations we've had this summer. Both at Tybee Island Georgia. and had a great time during both of them, but in the middle were two hospitizations and untold craziness. His Alzheimer's is progressing at alarming speed now. Crazier and crazier incidents. finding shoes in the refrigerator because I told him to put his shoes up and he did- in the refrigerator. Huh! went psychotic at the thought of him actually being married to me(God forbid) he was horrified when I got out our marriage certificate and he realized he was actually married to me for 20 years. can't complete a sentence and it's not that he doesn't know what he's thinking, it's that he can't verbalize it. on and on we go.
Now I have decided we have no choice but to move ourselves to Georgia. While it makes me incredibly sad to be leaving Steven over here, at least I know he's in good hands with Amanda and her family and we will make plenty of trips to see each other. I have been called selfish to want to move to Georgia, but really is it any more selfish to want to be where I am actually getting help for me and him or is it more selfish to want us to be here so when and if you decide you might want to see him, you could. Really if you are only seeing him every few months or so, what is the point?
Anyways, I see a big blowup in my future, but it is what it is and for once, I'm going to do something that is right for me.
