It breaks my heart watching them grow older I just can't stand the feeling of worring of what age does to people. My mom mentioned she gets tired easier and my dad is so brave he eats so healthy and is so strong but no matter how strong you are age hits us. I feel so sad I want to turn back time sometimes... I don't know how to feel...

My dad is 62 and my mom is 58 and it's hit me that they're not going to be around for a lot longer at all.<BR/><BR/>I'm thinking about doing more stuff with my dad, like going down to the bowling alley and playing pool and just hanging out since he stays home all day and watches tv while I'm out. <BR/><BR/>I guess all we can do is make our parents happy while they're still around, and us wanting to spend time with them is probably the biggest joy they can get.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26114066.post-56784946980248158322007-08-10T15:44:00.000+00:002007-08-10T15:44:00.000+00:00big hugs to you. I know how you feel, although I'...big hugs to you. I know how you feel, although I've been through this with grandparents rather than parents. But I can say that although your mom is doing so much for your dad, I'm sure there's still enough left for herself. I know there is.carrie mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11833667617864560470noreply@blogger.com
