Going to Atlanta

My mother in law suffered from Alzheimer's and Whynot and I were her primary caregivers. I loved her very much, but there were some difficult times. During these difficult times, Millie would become very angry with me and say that she was moving to Atlanta to be with her grand daughter. It wasn't going to happen on my watch and we humored her.

Perhaps if my MIL did move to Atlanta, she'd be living in a luxurious Atlanta high rise condominiums located near Peachtree Blvd in the uptown district referred to as Bucktown.

  3. I think it's lovely you took care of your mother in law. Alzheimer's is hard for the person who's got it, but alsof for the people around him or her.

  4. Or perhaps your MIL would have been kind enough to open her doors to the internet junkies and let us all camp in her living room to get warm from the cold weather! :)
