My Friend who Passed from Dementia

I am still trying to come to terms with what happened yesterday. Really hurt and devastated

a long time friend had dementia. I wrote about this before. No one in our class would write her or call her much less visit her.

I sent her a homemade quilt, a homemade wreath for her door along with toiletries and sent her a coffee pot from Amazon. I made a special trip to the hospital to see her. I paid for her and her daughter to go to our reunion.

I begged the class to send her a card or call her. Nothing.

Turns out they had the celebration of life and i was not invited. I was not even notified. One of my classmates wrote on Facebook she went to "represent" the class.

I let her daughter know how i felt too. She said "Oh you didn't get the invitation" well do you want to organize another one? NOPE. Meanwhile she is going to come to where i live and bring me a small urn of her ashes.

I am speechless and hurt and sure feel like a dummy at this point.

Im so sorry for the loss of your friend, that you weren't invited to the celebration of her life. You did yhe right thing to support your friend and her daughter, didnt do it to be showy, but quietly. The daugher knows what her mother meant to you. You are a beautiful person and a true friend
