Re: One Step at a Time - June 2018
Sorry, Liz, Cross-Post. I think maybe your hubs is acting indifferent/less than supportive about your parents is because he is sad and scared. My uncle had Parkinson's disease and declined over a period of many years. His son-in-law, Bruce, and he, were SO close for 15 years or so..they would go fishing and boating together, take trips. When my uncle started declining and he became almost blind and couldn't speak, Bruce did what your hubs did...pulled away and did things for my uncle very begrudgingly. He confided in my uncle's wife that he was just very, very sad to see my uncle decline, and couldn't bear the thought of being with him when all Bruce remembered was the retired executive who was once so full of life. Maybe that's how your hubs is feeling now? Men don't handle fear well a lot of times. Anyway, just my two cents. I would be FURIOUS if my daughter and grandson were in an accident and nobody told me til later. What difference would it have made if they had told you at that moment or a day later as far as drinking????? That makes no sense IMHO. Love you.
