((((Jaded))) I completely understand where you are coming from. My mother cared for my dad for as long as she could...he became violent and would throw things at her, told us she was poisoning him. We put him in a nursing home and she would visit him everyday...sometimes he knew her/us but I preferred it when he didn't...when he didn't know where he was. The day he finally died my sister was with him and when mom and I returned there from our lunch at a nearby restaurant he had already died. My mother was so upset that she wasn't with him...I was glad he died.

They call it the "long goodbye"....to me, it's cruel and inhuman to watch someone we love....go on and on and on.

We shoot horses. Come vent anytime dear lady.
