Mom Violy had been craving lobster but was hesitant to try dining at Burger & Lobster. She mentioned the restaurant to a family member, who said the food was delicious but pricey. She told Carmina she wanted to eat there for lunch on Saturday, January 3rd. Since it was the new year, we decided to explore and try something different. Many tables had reservations, but they also accepted walk-ins, just like we did today. Our server handed us the menu. Carmina already knew what she wanted to order: BBQ Beef Ribs for 1,190 pesos ($20.17). Mom Violy and a family member decided to share the Combo One at B&L for 5,290.00 pesos ($89.66), along with garlic rice for 90.00 pesos ($1.53). A family member ordered an Atomic Burger for 695.00 pesos ($11.78) along with a Lobster Mac & Cheese for 990.00 pesos ($16.78). One of the perks of everyone ordering something different is getting to sample each other’s dishes. Everyone left happy and full, with some leftovers to take home. The port...
You never knew when you spend less time with someone. You just realize when you decide to have dinner with your in-law's. You see something different from them. My father in-law is not capable of seeing anything in front of him. He questions what food has been cook. Can no longer identify the food in front of him.
You notice his shirt that he is wearing is reverse which the tag from the back is now in the front. He doesn't seem to notice any difference.
He starts to walk slower at his pace.
He can't hear well even if you are talking louder than you should.
He laughs when you say something.
You realized something is changing and no matter what you can't feel sorry for them aging this way.
How do you cope with it someone living in your home being this way?
I see my sister in-law coming to the house to check on him on a daily basis.
They are so worried and concern of their father who has changed so much in less than a time.
Mother in-law patiently serves her husband just like your taking care of a kid. She maybe hurting inside seeing her husband being this way. But, not showing her emotional feeling.
As we aged there are a lot of things our body and mind cannot cope when we are taking too many medication in our system.
The hard part when they still are in denial not realizing they are turning to be a different person.
I realized this point when someone close to you is changing you need to change for them. You need to be there for them even if they don't appreciate the things you do for them.
Only God knows you work so hard to make that person safe and you worry for them as they are changing every time.
