Farewell Wanderlust 🏡 on Nostr: Lee died peacefully in my arms today. Over the past few months she developed dementia ...

Lee died peacefully in my arms today. Over the past few months she developed dementia and deteriorated quickly. It's brought back all those memories of my mom's dementia over the past year, her pain, confusion, anxiety. Her begging to go home and promising she'd be good and just stay in her room and only come out to make a little meal for herself. Her loss of dignity and pleasure. Her last horrific month when all she wanted to do was go and stopped eating, drinking, moving. I'm soaked in grief, just drenched in it.
