I have many of the same issues that you have. It is very different when the person who is deteriating is yourself...verses the concerned caregiver or family member. Contact w/ a fellow sufferer is a validation of our traumatic circumstance. Like you I try to cope w/ fear & anxiety re/ the future by planning on an 'early escape' (before it's too late & beyond my control to "get out"). This is a perfectly natural reaction to quality of life issues. Whether the ill person will have the courage to act on the plan in the future is almost beside the point. For me right now, just being able to exert a little meaningless control is giving me a bit of relief. I am not dx'd as my Dr's are dragging their feet re/ Neuro refferal, however I know what I know...I am (and have been for a quite a while) suffering very significant cognitive decline. Driving, directions, time management...it's all a nightmare! Michael, I would sincerely love to hear more about you and what you are going through. My Memory is shot so sure hope I remember this site and that I posted this. Perhaps the Mod could email me when/if there is a reply??? I would be so appreciative of that kindness. All the best to you Michael. Sincerely; 4ever |
