218. Mother-Daughter→Husband Journey: Alright! — 10 Comments

  1. I can find glimpses of similar behaviour in my darling. He is righteous and fearless, when necessary, just like Robert seems to be. Simply wonderful and deeply involving. Thank you, Susan, for all you write

  2. These are the memories that you can wrap yourself up in and find pure comfort. Hold tight to them, you need them more than you think.
    You seem to be holding your own. Please stay steady as you go. Sending prayers 🙏🙏🙏❤🙏🙏🙏

  3. Well, all I can think to say is, while you have to take one day at a time, try to find some little slot to appreciate something and relax, if possible! He may get better but only time will tell. That uncertainty is so cruel, so hard to deal with! However, others especially now are going through the same thing, especially us older ones. . .

  4. My PCP is mostly retired. One day I bumped into him after seeing his successor. He asked me how I was doing. I replied. He said, “you know Cliff, we are getting older. When you get older, things start to not work right. The older you get, the more things don’t work, then one day you die. “

  5. I recognized everything you described about Bob. I was certainly surprised when I was in his car on the Grand Central Parkway and he pulled over onto the shoulder. “Bob what’s wrong?” “There’s a soda can back there.” There were the many times when he objected to sometimes a penny error in sales tax. He repeatedly but gently corrected my English when I used “that” instead of “who.” I think I’ve learned my lesson. There were so many more stories of his eccentricities and strong beliefs in everyone doing everything properly.

  6. So now I know a part of the rest of the story which sounds romantic comedy material. I too cooked with Julia- coqilles st Jacques and duck a la orange Etc until a friend said I didn’t spend enough time with my company and I should order pizza.

    I’m rooting for Robert to beat covid and get help for his Other health issues. He sounds like a fighter and we have more resilience than machines usually.

  7. You really know how to mix comedy with your sad journey. Love Seinfeld….especially that episode. The only one that beats it is the Soup Nazi. Keep your spirits up. Love, Pat

  8. very sad to not get his self together.I think people give up when they have no one to talk to in their family.Times are more then crazy right now.I hope your Robert knows what is really going on.I just feel bad for all of you in his life.God bless you all.
