Watching your loved one slowly fade away over time is it's own sort of torture. This is true with cancer. This is especially true with diseases such as Alzheimers, Parkinson's, ALS, and Huntington's disease.
This episode I specifically talk about Alzheimers because of the way the disease progresses. Your loved one can forget who you are years before they die. You want their suffering to stop. You want your suffering to stop. Then you feel guilty because you don't want them to die and can't believe you thought that.
This a natural response. Thinking this doesn't not make you a horrible person. In fact, I have found that often the opposite is true. You love so deeply and that makes you a wonderful, beautiful person. Book a free call to talk through this pain with someone who understands.
