I wrote this poem I hope you like it! It helps to write and share. My mom has dementia and it’s getting worse and it’s really hard some days! 🌈
Where did she go?
This mother I once knew?
Everyday she’s falling away through
The cracks more and more!
It’s so hard to watch all you can do
Is grin and bare it!
You wonder why this has happened?
Her memory a distant past!
The love you have for her is so strong
It helps you to go on
But it’s so unfair!
That you care so much!
It hurts!
It hurts!
Why?
I want my mom back
You dumb old dementia
You have stole her away
From me! ☹️

We are going through this with my father in law. His mind went so fast. Last July he still knew all of us and was out and about. Now he has a tough time remembering how to put his hearing aid in and seems to sleep most of the day.
It is hard to watch.
