Hello all, I am asking for prayers and even maybe a little advice for helping my Mother. I am 35, she is 64, she had a recent MRI and the doc said she had level two Brain Shrinkage. My mother said this will lead to Dementia, of course I have no idea if this means in 1 year or 10, this makes it especially frustrating. She also said she does not have alzhimiers yet, but she will get it. It makes it harder that my dad who is not the emotional one in the family is in denial about this. He just blew it off and said people’s brains shrink as they get older.
Like a lot of people, I am very close to my mother and my daughters who are three (twins) are very attached to her. So I am extremely worried, I am trying to look at it as this may not be an issue for years, but I am a person who worries quit a bit. My Mom is very Catholic and I would like to say I am too, I have struggled with beleif for the last few years, it really makes things harder when your beleif is shaken.
I know we all lose our parents at some point, but I guess I am just not ready and not to this disease, my Grandmother (my mom’s mother is 82 and is in the final stages, she has had it for about 10-14 years, depends on who you ask).
