And when I think the boards can't be all that bad and haven't the foggiest on why people would leave, I read this.
I personally don't care if you think that its a joke and "no harm was done".. Ha ha ha "its funny cause they can't remember! Bullshit.
I hope you NEVER have watch a loved one have to go through this disease, to see their souls stripped away until they are left with an empty shell one step above being a vegetable, and know that there's not a damn thing you can do to stop its progression. Then there's the physical deterioration in the later stages. There is no remission, no regression.
All I wanted was some suggestions so that possibly the last dance I have with my mother would be a special one, and I get this. How fucking lovely.

From the bottom of my heart I sincerely apologize. Looking objectively you must be able to realize that not being able to remember Mr Roboto would be one of the small upsides to this terrible disease.

Are you looking to put both feet in your mouth now? This was totally tasteless.

Although its message is supposedly to one's significant other, everything Mr. Waite sings about in that song I could relate to in my relationship with my mother.
And with that.. Gr8whitehope. My mother and father never wanted me to fight or wish harm upon others. I will forgive you for your comments, because thats just the way I was raised. I just hope you truely understand how hurtful and heartless your words were, and that you will in the future think about what you post.
Best Regards All and Thanks again.

There was some damage to her heart, but the doctors believe it wasn't very bad, but with her condition we agreed not to go with more intrusive tests, since that might stress her out more. It really puts things into perspective when something like this happens, and you feel so helpless because she's not able to communicate and tell you what is wrong.
I am still hoping in a few weeks to do the dance with her now that I have the summer off.

The last posting I made was that mom, who was suffering from Dementia had a mild heart attack. I had every intention of renting a tux and dancing with her, but with so many of us, I got busy and put it off. In January 2013, my mom fell and broke her hip, and with her advanced condition, wasn't able to do rehab. She was at my wedding (I rolled her down the isle before I said my vows) but I wasn't able to stay for the dinner/reception afterwords.
My sister took her place as we danced to Bad English. It still breaks my heart to this day that I put it off due to my schedule.
So what's the point of my post? Life is precious. Don't take it for granted, because those you love could be unable to be with you to really no fault of their own, or they could be gone at a moment's notice. Cherish the time you have, and tell those who you love how you feel.. Many don't understand alzeimers/dementia.. many think one gets forgetful and shrug it off. They don't see that it takes EVERYTHING that was that person away from those who are closest to you, and then it takes them away physically.
Gr8White.. A thousand times after I got married I wanted to say "FUCK YOU" but that would have been just me lashing out due to my mother's condition and such. I do forgive you. It's all good. It's taken me a long time to move on, but I have. I just wanted to let you know. It's one of the reason's why I haven't been around the boards as well.
Now I let you go about your usual Styx vs DDY ramblings.
Best Regards
