Irene's Mental Health

[Batman]

I blame @Master for the bad feeling people have towards each other, he doesn't get involved directly but he orchestrates it all with his little mod fingers.

Good post by the way, good on you for looking after her, I remember when I tried to look after a girl who was out of her mind on drugs, she was trying to throw herself in front of busses and shit, when the police arrived they accused me of first of all trying to take advantage of her then of being the one who gave her the drugs and then of being her pimp. At that point I decided to be more careful when deciding who I help in the future.

Fuck I called for Master to be banned 4 times in the past 36 hours but Saddo/Andre just keep letting him slide.

He's a menace, pure and simple.

Good on you. Dementia of any kind is a horrible thing. I'm dealing with it in my family now. It is frightening and I'm glad you had the opportunity to do something kind for someone who will never be able to repay you, those are amongst our finest moments

[Master]

My mum has dementia and has got lost on occasions and the police have found her when she was gone for some hours. The last time someone brought her home in a car.

You did the right thing and more than most would. She was lucky you were around.

PS
Why are you cunts blaming me you tossers.

If I could I'd bro hug Memphis cheesy twat or not I would. Seriously , good on you man and the selflessness. We lost Mom in February after a short agonizing battle with cancer and hospice. I told no one directly but for a couple on here who knew via FB friends and such. She was very much in similar distress with loss of faculties and memory. Driving 6 hr shifts every other night became the norm for a few months. Drive out after work, stay the night, enjoy the next morning and drive back the same evening. My second to last drive 'home' from their house she wept and pleaded with my to not leave. Foolishly and to this day say selfishly I sited "job" and just needed to 'put some things in order' that weekend and I'd turn around and drive back in 2 days. I was so stuck in routine I had 'normalized' it in a weird way. It was the last time she ever spoke and the last conversation we would have. She slipped into a complete non responsive state on oxygen and hung on for one more week before passing. My Father suffers dementia for the last yr and symptoms and degrees are worsening steadily. Last week I called him and as we've learned 'you just don't really know how he is day to day unless you're in person'. He told me this enthusiastic phone call he made the day prior to his old shipmates while they were currently out to sea. It's amazing because he was so full of ship details, character traits and previous missions etc. I knew in the back of my mind but did in fact have to fact check some names upon hanging up. The uss Enterprise has been decommissioned for about five yrs. Many of those ship mates are long gone. They say that with every memory you try to put on the table they can helplessly watch two fall off the side. The thing is he's still aware of that. Not sure why I ran on with that but ya helped me go there with your post. So I say thank you for that. To the rest I say that yes, indeed, be kind to one another and take no one for granted.
