my mother has gone through so much - she is a real survivor

Tweet

It's amazing all the things my mum has done. She has had 5 children, survived cancer (a vary rare form) and now when she should be enjoying her life with our dad in retirement, he got alzheimers so she visits him once or twice a day in the hospice to feed him and spend time with him. The only exceptions when she doesn't visit dad are when she has been sick or gone to visit with my siblings when they have had their children and she often visits them to help them. Even if dad doesn't say her name anymore, she will still visit him! One time when she visited a sister who had had a baby in another town she broke her toe so had to stay away longer from dad. She came back on crutches but still dragged herself over to visit dad on most days. Are your mums like this, or do you know someone else who is?
