Woke up this morning to see mac getting out of bed to go to the washroom, and then, and as he started to walk, suddenly fall over backward; luckily his head missed two sharp corners and landed on the carpet...lucky, but not so lucky, as he couldn't get up. We had to have our neighbour in to lift him back to bed...but the WAKE UP call for us was very clear. This could have been much worse..he could have broken something, , but instead, its a different sot of break, let's call it heartbreak which it is..........
We are going to have to go to a respite place tomorrow until he can be placed in a long'term facility..it's gotten to be too much..and therefore, the memories will i hope go on as we cointinue our very sad journey in two different places. Just yesterday, Mac was looking at his mom's picture and said, when will she be back...and then realized she would not be back, his sadness as he mourned her loss was unbelievable and the tears for both of us were shared....because we were together.....
This loss is harder to bear as it is another form of loss, the togetherness that has always been such a blessing for us..no matter what we were together ...well as much as possible I'm going to try to be with Mac and so
tomorrow will start a new episode in our life, not together completely..but as much as we can be...we have had 6i0 years so I'm trying to be brave...please have us in your prayers and thoughts...g'nite
