The hardest thing I've ever had to do.... ever

[ezdays]

Lutz, your "humble English", is eloquent and I'm thankful that you're here. Along with everyone else, you all understand what I'm going through. You are right, the person we put into memory care a few weeks ago was just a shell of who my wife was, but still, every once in a while, part of her would pop through and I would wonder if I'm about to do the right thing. Then she'd fall and I'd call the Fire Department and they'd help me get her back up and patched up until Hospice sent a nurse and maybe an x-ray machine to take care of her until the next time she'd fall. That's when I would know that it's the right thing to do. And yes, it's usually the caretaker that gets the strain and stress and so we all understand what each of us has or is going through.
