One of the main reason , that my wife and I dont get to art festivals. Is we are caregivers for my 80 year old aunt which has alzeimers for the past five years now. That was one reason that , I started doing art again. Had stopped years ago , then taught by starting back would help my nerves some. I sucks ass seeing a love one just almost vanish before your eyes ! My aunt at the age 6 contacted polio from there she spent awhile in Shriners Hospital in S.C. Went thru several surgeries that atleast helped her to walk with braces. At the age of 16 or 17 she graduated College at E.T.S.U. A little while after graduating she went to work at Rayethon Company in Bristol , Tn. There at first was a chemist , and got scared of that work. Because of walking with braces and crutches. She moved over to testing and became Quality Control . After work there for 41 years , she took ealy retirement. To help her parents because of her mother becoming sick. Her mother my grandmother passed away in 1993 , then in 1996 her father my grandfather passed away with cancer. I do believe myself this is two big things , that maybe sent her in some what depression. Both my wife and I have taken care of her since then ( 1996 ). Five years ago her doctors said she had first stages of alzeimers , from there it has just kinda been a slow decline. Now ! I just found out about a month ago my father has skin cancer. I really just wounder how much , more can a man take ! I try and stay in good spirit but there are times when its very , rough !! Not trying to get some attention , just trying to let everyone know. What the wife and I go thru daily ! Being a care givers is sometimes are hard on them as the love one your trying to take care of. Ok , I will shut up for now just had to get some things off my chest ! Please if you have time say a little prayer for our family !! Thanks for reading and God Bless Everyone !!! Your friend ~ X ~ !!!
