Andy as you know I\'ve been through this and the unthinkable starts to become the norm. Every time I leave the care facility I am down and it takes a day to recover but when I arrive there he is actually fine and surrounded by people who are always on the alert and taking care of him and he is slightly aware and does not seem at all distressed which is a blessing. What hurts is that he was \"mine\" and now I am \"the visitor\" and so the letting go has to be on my part. This is the hardest thing I have ever lived through and a very lonely experience - I feel for you.

Excellent expression..... Why can\'t more of us be so enlightened?
It\'s easy once you accept it, and everything becomes \'right\' and beauty is in everything.

Eugene ammons uses lots of echo effect on all his recordings i\'ve noticed and some rather mundane sidemen in his 50\'s recordings, but some outstanding period pieces and great feel for blues and balads.

Magnificent my friend, at those time I didn\'t know but as I look back now and see differently. It was always there and now nurtured to become more aware that it will forever remain.

I am lost for words that could help but I send all my strength to this heartfelt out pour.

You an amazing being I admire with all my pride to love and continue this life. I\'ve been unsure to post one I wrote while with my grandmother the other weekend but with your spirit in mind I shall let go of that pain as you have.

Thank you again for being so perfectly you.

Watching a Woody Allen film over the weekend i discovered this piece, thought you might appreciate it... never heard of the guy myself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vl4_f8Emtw

Your piece today is a celebration of life and i see eye to eye with every word of it.

HI UNCLE ANDY ~ Thanks for sharing the Video sometimes a person surprises us with a hidden talent ! Some of my Extended Family are Classical Pianists and cant resist giving *Covert Piano* a tinkle ! Always draws an AUDIENCE !
Thanks again for sharing a love POEM relating to JOYCE straight from YOUR LOVING HEART ! Many of us grapple with Dementia in Friends & Family but ~ in our own experience ~ never as close as You & Your Beloved JOYCE ~ We pray for you 24/7.

Blessings & Peace & Love to YOU & JOYCE
Yours as always ~ ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Your inspiring personality will find a way through when you can cope no longer dear friend and to read that you might go back to music with playing clarinet and trumpet shows that you will quietly adapt..... life still feels worthwhile when we can look back on happy memories dear Goldy.

Suresh said:

From all that I have read so far, your love and care for her surpasses most. As such, you have built a treasure trove of memories to forever accompany you.
These moments apart, to strengthen your resolve and you have many a friend on MPS.

Neville said:

I know that I have said it before, but I genuinely hope you can relax a little and make the most of this brief respite... one which you so obviously need , even though it is just as obvious you resent the need and will miss your dear wife throughout... sadder than sad and I shall be thinking of you...

You will always have your wonderful wife with you Andy, In your heart and memories.
Tough tough times I would have to believe God had given margie me to take care of her if I were in your shoes.

dusk arising said:

On the face of it a sad piece but....
Alone, or getting used to preparing the next phase of your life Goldfinch?
Change, especially when its an unwanted change, is damned difficult and takes all our positivity to see it thru into something constructive and worthwhile.
I dont picture u as one who sits alone and sad for long periods.
There\'s plenty of life, plenty of get up and go in you my friend. I bet you have plans.

It\'s difficult - yet what do I know? Only a bit perhaps, though not having personal experience of this. Thinking of you both Gold.

The change from dark to the glory of light is worded so well in both your verse and the chosen music....... a great and uplifting posting dear Goldy.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

THANKS FOR CARING & SHARING UNCLE ANDY ! We love the Poem and the Picture. The SUNRISE always evokes HOPE ~ for TODAY & TOMORROW ! We love Sunrises over the Sea and when we go to Sizewell Hall (Suffolk Coast near the Power Station !) for a RETREAT we wake up early every Morning to see the SUN RISE out of the SEA ~ AWESOME. In our experience (a mere 66 years between US) we have been trapped in a few of Lifes Tunnels ~ BUT have always (so far) discovered there is ALWAYS *A Light at the End* AMEN !

Blessings & Light & Love for YOU & JOYCE
Yours as always ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

DAWN Uncle Andy is the best part of the DAY ~ When ALL is Sweetness & Light ! Death is so so final ~ and the initial setting of the song (in the Video) is so so moving ! I was aware it was from CAROUSEL. Ive often sung it on the KOP @ Anfield ! Im routing for the REDS tomorrow and my Prediction would be 3 : 1 for LIVERPOOL ! At least the Fans have only had to travel to MADRID ~ May the Best Team & the Best Manager WIN ! Thanks for sharing the Liverpool FC Anthem !

Blessings & Peace & Joy to YOU & JOYCE
