The Most Loving Thing

By Dizzy -- WSA Support Group Leader, Forum and WSA Member

A year ago today I walked out of the assisted living community without her. It was quiet--deeply quiet--walking alone to my rented car and driving away. Away. A dreadful word loomed just beyond my sense of exhaustion, relief and freedom. I didn't think about it head-on, but it lurked there waiting. Abandonment.

A series of illness had hijacked her, and me, and dropped us in a strange land. Her with dementia, me with my own madness for which I have no name. It is the madness of loss--loss of a lovely home, a good job, friends, family, retirement, travel, community, intimacy, companionship--peace.
