West-Tex : I wish my dad would let me drive him around. He's still a sprightly gentleman, but he does have an 86 year old back.It would be an exceptionally high honor for me.

West-Tex : Make them while you can.

West-Tex : Still, caretaking is hard. It is okay to complain a bit. It doesn't make you a bad daughter; it makes you human.

I got off early today! 😂

West-Tex : I recall enjoying those breaks. Do something nice for yourself. And thanks for your generous tips.

West-Tex :
Once a good while ago, like about 17 years ago, I was driving my mom to the grocery store and to some doctors appointments, mama has been gone now for about 15 years and I will tell you, I wish so much I still had the chance to do this again for her. I recall once when we were going into a grocery store and getting ready to cross the parking lot that I took her hand to cross the parking lot ( a wonderful memory) anyway I mentioned this to my vet that treated my dog, he had a whole different spin on it, he said maybe she was remembering when I was small and she would hold my hand to cross a street or whatever. I miss my mama still so much. Cherish every minute!!!!!!!! The voice of experience.

West-Tex : My DD has had to take me to a few appointments over the past few months. I told her during one of these drives that I was sorry it put extra stress on her, because her schedule is so busy. At the same time, I told her that those drives are the highlight of my life now. I enjoy nothing as much as I enjoy our time in the car. Just so you know, I'm sure your Dad feels the same way.

I just want to be clear that I'm not complaining! I value my time with him! 🥰Thanks everyone for your stories! ❤️
