I know it isn't my parents but I have been through it with my moms mom helped take care of her and they don't know who you are and now my Dad's mom and I have helped take care of her. So it's a good chance that I will be taking care of my mom and dad one day. It's sad but atleast they don't hurt and remember the bad stuff. 😔 but even though I have been through this with both my grandparents I hate to think about it being my parents. Sorry for your pain.

Yes and ticket prices are high.

My hopes:
1. It's a noon game. If it's announced it's a night game today, I don't see prices changing.
2. They lose to MS this weekend.

Even if those things happen, ticket prices still may not change up until gameday since it's been 4 weeks for a home game for them and they'd be undefeated at home.

So…. I had this whole thing I was going to do and it started off as expected but then sadness and it derailed my fun.
Went by my parents house today to check on a window. While there JayBird asked me if I was a handyman. (First time he didn’t know who I was) I told him I was a contractor. He said “my son is a contractor “. He then proceeded to tell me all about…..me. Fortunately it turns out he thinks I’m a good guy.
It could be a lot worse I guess. He could think I’m an *******.

Anyway. I appreciate all of you who have offered support and prayers for JayBird. It’s been a tough week and I realize this is a football thread but unfortunately for you guys, y’all are my imaginary friends. Which means when I’m having a tough time you have to hear about it.


Shalom y’all.

That's tough man. I'm going through that with my dad. He still knows who I and my brother are, but he tells my mom all the time that she is not his wife. And what did she do with her. Several other things. It's really hard. That's one of the reasons I'm trying to get back to Tennessee, so I can help my mother out with what is going on.

Dementia is a horrible disease and I don't wish it on anyone.

My dad has decided that my mother is gone and the lady there now has been her replacement for about 5 years. He likes her/mom so the Drs say not to fight him on it. Sometimes he remembers mom is mom.

This is absolutely horrible.

I’d rather die than go through it. Which is my future.
My dads dad went through it at 82. My dad is 82. I’ve got 30 years left if I’m lucky

My mother-in-law periodically thinks my husband (her son) is her husband (who died several years ago.) Sometimes her brother, sometimes her own father. It's as if her brain recognizes him as "male relative" and assigns different names/identities to him.

It was horrible several years ago, when she would attack him verbally (and sometimes physically), accusing him of having abandoned her and having an affair.

Now she's just kind of mellowed out and confused.
