Today I became a parent to my mother. I had to fasten her seat belt, zip her jacket, cut her meat. I am not yet 39, I am too young for this. My mom is only 70. It is aweful but I really do wish the end would come quicker. Alzheimers is a terrible disease.

Aww I wish I could tell you that things will get easier but I dont think that is the case. I can only imagine how hard it is to see your parent go through this.
Yeah, unfortunately with Alzheimers there is no getting better. We went through it with my mom's step-mother/aunt, but I rarely saw her. In so many ways I wish I was still 2000 miles away.
