But I don’t like to believe the situation or the impact matters, it's how you grow and what you acquire through it. The first few years when my mom developed Alzheimer’s, I selfishly pitied myself and wasted time, not realizing time was allied with this disease and my mom didn’t have enough to spare. To have my mom live now, my brother and I needed to live. We had to live for her. And we’ve made mistakes, we’ve got irritated, and then we woke up the next day and kept going.
