Aging parents. You are still the child but now have to make a decision you don't know how to make. Being a respectful child and to your parents but forcing them to agree to care, diet, and a new lifestyle. Show love but be strong to guide them without disrespecting them.
Feeling like an adult but a child at the same time. They are feeling so helpless but strong for you.
Sometimes I just stare at them and think, what happened you took care of me my whole life and now I hope I do the best I can for you. It's how I feel about my kids, I want to be the best mother, but now I want to feel I am being the best daughter.
Nothing prepares you for parenthood and there is absolutely no preparation for caring for aging parents.
I have promised to do my best.
-Love
