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.
