Journal entry by Shannon Stanford —
Oh Mom... sigh... my heart hurts so much. I’m so sorry you’re going through all of this. It’s not easy watching you struggle and slip away more and more each day. I see your frustration and your anxiety. I see your pain and feel your loss. I wish there was a miracle cure that would reverse Alzheimer’s for you. I ask what would help you, make you happy, what would make you more comfortable, feel more loved... I’m trying my best and still feel like a huge failure. Let’s keep trying and together we can do this with God. I love you, Mom.
