Margaret SeftonI remember being goofy and singing Dan Fogelberg's "Run for the Roses" on our way home from the <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/KentuckyDerby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KentuckyDerby</a> party with my mom and dad. They along with my son thought I had lost it. They hadn't heard of it, but I was able to share the YouTube video of the Fogelberg recording. I am glad we have had memories of some recent times, though they are too few because my parents have lived a long drive away in South Carolina where my father will remain. <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/elderlyparents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#elderlyparents</a> <a href="https://youtu.be/61cceAXnC6w?si=CvJcvHHaIIIwACD8" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/61cceAXnC6w?si=CvJcvHHaIIIwACD8</a>

Margaret SeftonMy father is stepping out to attend his retirement community's <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/KentuckyDerby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KentuckyDerby</a> party tonight. My son and I went with him and Mom two years ago and had a lot of fun. I found out from Dad today that my mother's grandfather used to take her to the Chicago <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/horse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#horse</a> races along with her grandmother when she was little. My Mom and Dad have had an affinity for the races and have been to quite a few around the country. Tonight will be my dad's first social event by himself. <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/elderlyparents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#elderlyparents</a>

fuzzyfaceWell today didn't go to plan at all. Instead of a day working from home, I've spent the day with my dad who needed an X-ray after a fall at home. I left home at 8am and got back after 6pm. Hospitals (yes, two) and staff were great but we spent hours and hours waiting to see people and get tests done. Home now and fed. Just waiting for a mug of tea and I'll be fine. <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/ElderlyParents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ElderlyParents</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/NHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NHS</a>

SadieMan, it's a tough day when you really truly accept that you've reached the age when there's nothing left to look forward to but more pain, more loss, more loneliness and more fear. Aging sucks.You know that saying 'beats the alternative "? Well, I'm not so sure anymore. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/arthritis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#arthritis</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/elderlyparents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#elderlyparents</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/grownkids" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#grownkids</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/dementia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dementia</a>

PhoenixSerenityDad can't do his regular <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/HandExercises" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HandExercises</a> with left(antibiotics IV line is still on that arm) but insisted on doing his exercises with right hand. We did some bedside light stretches & leg lifts after.I have extra respite help until Friday. Then, we're switched back to 6 hrs/week respite support after; anything over that isn't subsidized & we can't afford it.<a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/CaregiverLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CaregiverLife</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/FamilyCaregiver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FamilyCaregiver</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/AsianMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AsianMastodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Teochew" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Teochew</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Chinese" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Chinese</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/ElderlyParents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ElderlyParents</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/DisabledParent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DisabledParent</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Caregivers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Caregivers</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Physiotherapy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Physiotherapy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Hands" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hands</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/BW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BW</a>
