The Roller Coaster Ride of Aging Parents
By Jody NolandOh, the roller coaster of aging parents. One moment, you can’t imagine life without them. The next, you’re ready to tear your hair out. Then, you hit the curve of overwhelming guilt from having had those negative feelings. And on and on it goes.
One day, the frustrations will be over. Your parents will be gone and you’ll long to hear that same story for the 373rd time. You’ll wish you had cherished the time more, gotten frustrated less and listened a little better. I certainly do.
