Suovi

Hey hey!
It really isn't yet it kind of is in Finnish. Suovi doesn't mean anything but it's shortened from Suoviitta, which would be translated as something like "swamp cloak". It's just an username I made up on one Finnish forum once and Suovi just the short form of that. smile

Don't feel bad, please. You can't really help that the distance worked against your ability to be close to them. I find that I can relate by imaging a close family member or friend dead when one I'm not close to dies. It helps me to relate. I agree, as long as you're sympathetic and there for someone it doesn't matter if you've had people who were close to you die. What counts is that you're there for them.

That's what I tell myself. I try to think of her old self as who she really was and remind myself that this is the disease's affect on her and that it doesn't have to destroy my happier memories. It does help, she looks and acts quite a bit differently so it's easier to hold on to those happy memories.

Don't feel guilty, you simply weren't very close and there's not a problem with that.

I was very close to my grandmother as a kid but as I grew up and then when we moved I felt less so. I'm still close to her, just not so much as I once was.

It is very sad, I agree. I'm sorry that it happened to your great-grandmother. The stroke must have made it so much worse.
Alzheimer's almost seems harder on the family of the individual with it as they have to deal with losing a loved one bit by bit and eventually saying goodbye to someone who doesn't remember them at all.

Thank you. heart Honestly, I think it is kind of difficult for her, but her short term memory isn't doing so well, so that lends a sort of ease of forgetting. Her mind is going and yet it's keeping her from fully realizing how frail her body is and the very fact that her mind is going. She doesn't seem to bothered by it, which is the one kindness of the disease.

Aww, I hope you get enough sleep tonight! D: Visiting your friend sounds like it'll be a nice way to relax, though. I hope she isn't working so you guys can hang out.

I'm doing pretty well, thank you. I'm on break from school right now and spent the early afternoon job-hunting, then later I helped my grandmother do her exercises, which is a difficult task because of her frailty, stage 4 Alzheimer's, and hearing problems, but I got her through it all the same!

Whoo! We should coordinate our avis sometime by matching color schemes. xd

Awww! heart My avi does kind of look like a fuzzy little...bunny...or something. xd

Oh my gosh, I'm the same way with colors! I love coordination and matching and certain shades. I just get so giddy when I color-coordinate an avi or my clothes for the day. That must seem kind of weird, but oh well.

Oh my gosh, I remember watching pokemon! That one was particularly cute. whee

I really like avatars that incorporate white and silver, they're such cool calm colors that I can't help but enjoy them.
