Jenny O's Journal, 27 April 2018

Trying to stay on track.... my alzheimer's dad is now in a psych ward being evaluated, he's now getting really agitated and a little violent. It's so hard.... I keep saying to myself that food is not going to make the problem go away. I am exercising, which does help. Been walking too now that the weather has gotten a little nicer out. So much going on and so emotionally draining. My prayer warriors, please say a prayer for my family for the strength and courage to get through this. Thank you.

That is so stressful. Sending thoughts your way. You are right - food won't help but exercise probably will. Hang in there.

Praying for peace and grace while you go through this. Good job on the exercise. I'm sorry that's happening to your Dad.

My father in law had to be admitted into a psych ward recently. We put him in the VA Nursing home in October because he was getting violent and had a mental break. It was hard, but he is now on better meds and doing really well. I am praying for a hand on your family and a guiding light for the doctors to help get him on the correct dosage of medication. I know how hard it is, if you need to talk, I am here. **hugs**

You will get through this! Remember that food is a liar. It doesn’t really help in the long run, but actually makes things worse. For emotional eating, substitute fruit or a whole bowlful of salad. Praying for peace.

Prayers for you and your family. Being a caretaker is very difficult in times like these and we need to remember to take care of ourselves or we can't take care of anyone else. Hugs

Thank you everyone for the support, very encouraging. Good news, Dad is back at the memory care place and everyone hugged him and he is happy go lucky (for now anyway). God is good.
