Mom and Dad - The Missing Manual - Two parents, two very different relationships, two sudden transitions. What I learned about showing up when the feelings don't do the work. - https://louplummer.lol/aging-parents-new/ #Aging #Family #Health
@amerpie I’m the only one who will and sorta almost can, so I do. But feelings? I tend to swallow those unexamined. Not very healthy. Neither is feeling like I’ve no choice, so that part I kinda sorta face by reminding myself I’m making a choice every day. Better than despondency, but not by much.
@markstoneman I know where you are, I do. It’s a hard choice to wrap one’s head around. My Dad is still proud of voting for Nixon and requires my help to watch Fox News. He represents what I despise, yet there I am, rolling up to help him, week after week.
