Another woman said "I don't visit him (a father with dementia) because that's NOT my dad." Yikes. But we all have to live with the choices we make, and I suppose we end up regretting a lot of them.

It's like the adult I heard say, "I don't visit my mother in the nursing home.

Where I work, I find the volunteers and facility staff seem to have a good rapport, which it helpful to me. I heard something this past weekend that stopped me in my tracks. A friend asked, "How can you stand to be around those people?" I'm thinking of writing a blog entry about it.

I didn't realize the verification was on. I do know how frustrating it can be copying the letters and numbers. I have eliminated it, and I'll see how that goes. <br /><br />Frances<br /><br />P.S.

...Great questions and answers!!! Thank you!<br /><br />Doris<br /><br />P.S. Would you consider eliminating the "word verification" on your "comment settings"?
