Guest guest Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Dear Jan S, I thought I had a bad day........... but your day really took the cake! I am so sorry for everything that you have on your plate.... I hope that things improve for you soon... if your Dad moves, then it will be up to his wife to deal with things..... Many hugs, Helene > > Dearest Jan, > My heart aches to hear all you have been through and now this. Please feel free to vent on all your grievances. You have way more than anyone should have to bear. > I don't know what to say other than your stepmother is making a big mistake. Sometimes just moving a person with LBD to another surrounding makes them anxious, but to fly your dad from South Africa to Australia is a very long flight. It was very hard on my husband just to fly across the U.S. from the West Coast to the East Coast with one stop. He became very aggressive acting out and confused. It was not a fun trip. We could have been tossed off the airplane, these days they probably would have. I didn't realize it would effect him that way. I will never take my husband on a long flight again unless he was sedated and I wouldn't want to do that to him. > What is the reasoning behind this, does your stepmother think she can get better care for your dad in Australia? Did you say that is where she is from? But how long has she been in South Africa; why would she want to make a move like that now??!! Family can be ruthless. I don't understand at a time like this when you need your dad and he needs you why she would take him that far away from you. It is such a loss to you. > You have had more than your share of problems to deal with. I can't even imagine how unbearable this must be for you. Is your dad capable of using a computer to communicate with you? > I am so sorry for you. > Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers to give you strength through all this. > Huge Hugs........ ......... ......Jan C. > > > > ____________ _________ _________ __ > From: janiceshapiro95 <janiceshapiro95@ ...> > To: LBDcaregivers@ yahoogroups. com > Sent: Thursday, November 6, 2008 12:24:40 PM > Subject: sorry > > > i also just want to say im sorry i keep telling some of you that i lost > my child earlier this year. technically it has nothing to do with this > group. but i am in agony BECAUSE i am already so traumatised, and now > having to face what is going on with my dad. > i am so very very afraid, and in pain > love jan > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
