Caring is such a mixed bag of emotions, I try every day to wake up and face the day ahead the best I can ,I have to in order to give my mum the best care possible to support her in this battle she faces every day and has done for the last 5 years, this ever changing journey has been a constant challenge to keeps pace with ,we have faced many struggles only a year ago my mum was so confused agitated and scared that she constantly wanted to leave the house to go home sometime up to 20-30 times a day and through the night .and I was at the end of my tether on the other hand her smile and the person she is would full my heart with joy, lately the stress is being replaced by sadness all to often, my mum can still make me smile ,she can certainly fill my heart with joy and she inspires me in ways only matched by my late father this morning sitting giving my mum breakfast has been a morning full of tears .I would take the stress back in heartbeat from last year I would Give anything for my mum to get out the bed and try and walk out the door .we are fading away side by side ,this morning my heart is full of tears but I know my mum will turn that into a smile at some point today .That’s the inspiration and greatness mums and dads have ,no matter what they face ,the can make their children smile and inspire them to keep going ,my mum is and so shall I
