Hi friends and family! It certainly feels surreal having to write this. So many times, we have been on the opposite side of Caring Bridge reading a cherished friend’s story and offering support, always feeling more removed than what we truly are. We are writing, Andi, Charlie and Alice, to provide an update for our Mom, Peg,  and ask for your support.  Mom, Peg, Pegalicious, or Margaret was diagnosed with Vascular Dementia about a year and half ago after a fairly quick decline that stabilized and has allowed her to continue to live a life at home, mostly with support from her brother, Pat. Mom recently had a bad fall, resulting in a brain injury and a pronounced decline in her condition. Her wish is to stay at home with the time she has left, which we also want for her and are trying to honor. She currently needs 24/7 companion care, as she is very unsteady and needs support when moving between her bed and her living room. Her short term memory has gotten noticeably worse and she presents sweet and agreeable,  but often does not understand what is going on around her very well. She is sleeping more often and mostly is resting when awake. We are not clear on what her timeline looks like or what the rest of her disease progression will entail.  We do know she really loves visitors. We are asking if you are able and have time and would be open to sitting with Mom, to reach out to Andi 317-694-3505. We will be grateful for any time or visit offered. She does have a memory book, and we are asking if people have fond or fun memories of her to please write them down. Thank you for your friendship and support during this time. We hope you will keep her and all of us in your thoughts and prayers. Feel free to contact any of us, but if you want to schedule a time with her please contact Andi(317-694-3505). Alice 317-696-5149 Charlie 317-696-1459
