Watching your parents age is frightening and disconcerting. What can you do? How do you help? How do you deal with it? A part of me has resigned in realizing that perhaps I'm meant to stay here. As much as I want to leave and get a fresh start with my own life, it gets harder. Who will take care of them?
Also, toastier.org got a little realigned for the summer. Hi, there!
i worry, too. my parents are constantly losing and forgetting things. last week i was at the hospital with my grandma every day as she recovered from surgery. sometimes i don't want to go home so i don't have to deal with it but then i feel guilty because i love them. they can't help it. and my older brother is never around so i'm alone and it's even scarier.
My grandfather is the only thing keeping me from packing up and moving to the west coast.
My parents still have a few years before they need me around.

by the way, this layout is gorgeous. it reminds me of an anthropologie catalogue.
