The thought that I will most certainly be a similar burden upon my already afflicted children terrifies me.
At 48, I am the three-year veteran of a bypass, I had an ileostomy in 1990, and am also a non-insulin dependent diabetic. It can't really go anywhere but downhill from here.
My mom died many years ago, and my father is estranged, and so I won't likely face the care of my elders, but the prospect of being cared for myself is not attractive.
Wolf, here's to medical science and karma coming together in the way that is best for your mom and for you. Keep us posted.
