Yeh, I agree, BUT.....this aunt, and her mother are in the same shituation, dunno anything, total out of it dementia......wife goes out on a job/errand and I feed the old ladies some cookies/drink that my wife leaves on the table....not like I DO anything, she takes care of the heavy shit....and it's really though on her, lifting them in/out of the walker chairs down the hall to the bathroom and then washing them up they both weighed maybe 80 lbs by now.....the thing with the aunt is that both her sons died off years ago....on in a RR accident, one from cancer....hubby long gone so damn depressing....

been going on for some ten years now between her mother and now the aunt.....

much rather be traveling a bit while we still able like we did our last trip, lamost 8 years ago, down to Key West, for a week's trip....
