We all visited him in the nursing home where he lived the last six weeks of his life. Some of us went more than others, but we all went. I personally think your children should go visit their dad. It isn't easy for anyone, and it isn't fair to have it all on you. No one wants to see their loved one in this setting, but it is a burden that must be shared. And most important of all, it is good for the person who is in there--their father, in the case of your children.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2975661896788904256.post-92217732327767262262012-09-22T10:18:51.624-07:002012-09-22T10:18:51.624-07:00It has taken awhile to get my husband's adult ...It has taken awhile to get my husband's adult children and grandchildren on board with seeing him. I do not know if they read my blog. We have to stop by the daughter's home in Plant City and she has physical limitations now. They have busy lives. My pastor told me that the son has had a real turn around seeing what I am going through the week I was on a cruise and my hubby stayed with him. We are invited there for Christmas and I am praying that my husband will still be in reasonable shape then. He says he never wants to take separate vacations again, but didn't know it was respite time (a gift) for me. <br /><br />Hugs and prayers,<br />Carol<br />P.S. Hoping to interview you.
