Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand. She wanted it as her main meal, but because of the mix-up and feeling hungry, she took a piece of Carmina’s Turkey Club Sandwich and asked for the bacon on the side.

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.
