Oh god, Anne, I'm sorry. Best to both of you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

{{{Anne}}} That's horrible. In my experience people with dementia can be mean in a way you wouldn't have previously thought them capable of being. Is there any chance your mother could get your stepfather's doctor involved?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm so sorry Anne.

Anne, right now? You're being very helpful. Get through tonight, the next moment, engage drs and go from there. Right now, your mom is in a safe place, with you.
It's scary seeing our parents vulnerable.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This. But that doesn't make it any easier to take.

Thank you all. I'm just hoping I can sleep tonight.

No, it's worse in many ways.

I'm so sorry, Anne. Hope you can sleep tonight, too.

There's a cat doing donuts attacking tail on my carpet. One guess as to who.

Oh, Anne, I'm sorry. Your poor mother. I hope you can help her, and that your father can get some help so that he's not so miserable and mean.
(I don't know how my father put up with it for so many years, my mother was so horrible to him for so long.)
