Have you ever seen a decoration your parents kept, carrying it with them from another country or a previous marriage? Carmina realized that parents often hold onto items they've purchased in the past. While browsing Greenhill's shopping center, she stepped into Mystic Gems by Bensani and saw so many nostalgic items that reminded her of growing up. I pointed out to Mom Violy that she had a similar crystal tree decoration at home. She said it was forty years old and already dirty. The saleslady explained it could be cleaned easily with soap and water. Carmina decided to take Mom Violy home and bring the crystal tree decoration with her. Mom Violy questioned why she was taking it, and I said I would clean it and return it. I noticed Mom Violy had placed planting seeds inside the decoration, for reasons I didn’t understand.

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.
