Good morning, Bluesky. It’s gonna be a tough day for me. Dealing with aging parents is the pits. I’m armed with crystals and intentions, but feeling shaky and nervous. If anyone has a little strength to share, I’d be grateful. Blessed be.

My sister has a very demanding job & she is not as bad as some of the siblings in this post but it really does feel as if I have a sister for holidays, birthdays, & trips & at all other times I am an only child.
All I really did today was listen to my Mom talk & I'm ready for the knacker's yard.

Its extremely hard dealing w/ multiple older people at the same time w/ mental health & aging-related issues, especially when they cause harm to you...
like you are more aware of reality (& I guess sane) than they are, but also its like how can you protect yourself
going to check r/agingparents

I love r/AgingParents because whether it's "Everyone at the charity clinic hates my dad because he's so mean" or "Parents estate mismanagement??? $15 million AT STAKE!!!" everyone is just so clearly at the end of their ropes.
Nice or mean, rich or poor, the slog of it unites people across barriers

Falls are the leading cause of injury among older adults.
Preventing falls starts with awareness and simple home safety improvements.

Posters on r/agingparents sometimes say that as you get old your fronto-temporal lobes break down & you can only care about yourself but there were a lot of elderly people who sincerely cared for others there today!

Today was the day my 80-something Dad regrets using military style training to raise kids.
Also, I may have traumatized some geriatric care nurses, though I bet they’re made of tough stuff.

One subtle clue that an aging parent may be struggling: look at the mail.
Unopened stacks, late notices, bills mixed with junk mail, or papers in unusual places may signal that organization and prioritization are becoming harder.
Patterns matter more than one isolated mistake.

You should peek at the r/AgingParents and r/eldercare subs if you’re on reddit. Lots of good support and info there. That sounds frustrating, I’m sorry. It’s really hard when the person doesn’t want to address the problem.

I walk into the drug store to get something for my mom.
Me: where is the incontinence section.
Worker: the condoms are at the end of this aisle.
Me: thanks. I appreciate your confidence in me. But I’m looking for adult diapers.
Worker and me have a good laugh.

2 of 2: We visited my mom today, and she was asking if she could come home for Christmas. We did all visit her and have Thanksgiving dinner with her the week prior to the holiday— Made her happy. Today she was weepy. It absolutely breaks my heart to explain why she can’t come home. #agingparents
