I had a really good day yesterday. The AD meds have finally really kicked in. I was able to stay mentally present most of the day with my kids. We picked my mom up early and brought her to church with us. I played my flute in church and it went beatifully. Mom was beaming so loved hearing me. We took her out for a nice lunch. She knew who I was and knew my daughters were hers just not sure what they were to her or what their names were. Thats pretty good for her these days. We took her back to memory care and loved on her a little more.

Overall I was just relaxed and happy. Not tied up in knots and anxious like I have been. But last night the kids went to the neighbors to swim and I was alone and tears just came. I don't know why. It is still happening today. Simple thoughts are bringing on tears. Not stuff I normally would cry about.

I don't know why.

Hi Jillian

Could it relate to tears of relief and gratitutde to be feeling more positive and hopeful, and/or having an enjoyable and meaningful encounter with your family? Especially as its so different to the ongoing hardship you've been enduring for so long? Sometimes tears are to do with seeing hope, light and joy again in places its been missing too long.

Hugs xx
