100%, we had a good time while it lasted. I refuse to allow this to hamper my career though, my grandma (mom's mom) has dementia as well, but its expected at 88 years old.

I live across the country, I'm not sacrificing my career to take care of her. She has a pension and can use that for a caretaker if it gets bad . Plus my dad can help out, hes still sharp

it sucks, just don't let it seep into your finances. My mom and her sister (aunt) sold grandmas house to pay for her moving into a old folks home. We are talking about a mid century modern home on 1.5 acres, that they sold to pay for assisted living, instead of just having her move in.

I will not make that mistake.

So are you posting while on service rn?
 
same here, I average like 5hrs a night even during the work week. On weekends I sometimes do all nighters
Be careful with all-nighters. I’ve done hundreds of them, resulting in 30+ hours of staying awake each time.

I’m so fucked I can never go to a normal sleeping routine now. I can never adjust to a 9-5 life.

I feel really bad for my dad because he's retiring in 2 years, and I'm sure they were gonna travel a bunch.

Now I just tell him to hang out with his boys and go on vacations with them, they are divorced too, seems to be the average for black men at that age

are you not worried about getting dementia as well, since it is probably genetic in your family

also your black? i thought i remembered hearing you were asian

I recently did an internship at a nursing home. It’s full of people with conditions like Alzheimer’s. My mom is 43, and it actually got me thinking about what would happen if that happened to her. Scary shit.

Nursing homes seems evil to me tbh. The staff rarely gives a fuck about the patients and are just counting hours. Obviously it may be different in your region but it's just my opinion of it. Hope ur doing good bro

Assisted Living is much better than nursing homes, but they cost a fortune. Destroying your finances to make parents who never prepared more comfortable is not something I would do.

Luckily my folks have pensions and 401ks so it likely wont be an issue but my grandma (born in 1938, and African American) wasn't so lucky
