Just when you think you're coming out and you think 'OK I see the light at the end of the tunnel ' then I got this diagnosis.
I learned a long time ago life just isn't fair so you better stop expecting it to be.
We have become accustomed to living our life with joy amidst pain and challenges.
Most of the time I think we're really pretty positive and optimistic and we're so lucky to have the life that we have and had with him.
When you least feel like it do something for someone else. You forget about your own situation. It gives you a purpose as opposed being sorrowful and lonely.
It is so important as a caregiver not to become so enmeshed in the role that you lose yourself. It's neither good for you nor your loved one.
You have to celebrate the gifts because life is so hard and I think once you realize life's gonna be hard the good stuff really comes forward.
