I wish I saw this video before my mom succumbed to Alzheimer’s, as I too didn’t have much patience for her during the first stage of this mind crippling disease. After she died, I once read a diary she kept. She made numerous entries of the many times she helped me with book reports, art projects, girl scouts, words of encouragment as I went off to college, graduated, trips to the far east and europe, marriage, etc. Over and over again the same words of encouragement and support when someone of lesser stuff and patience would have been fed up with all my shenanigens and tiresome tirades; she was the ever steady loving presence in my life. Thank you Mom, Thank you Jewish Mom.com for posting this.
