Heavy days call for gentle reminders.
As my dad adjusts to life in long-term care, I’m trying to slow my thoughts, take deep breaths, and focus only on what’s in front of me today.

He is safe. He is cared for by skilled people. And he is loved beyond measure. I may not be able to fix everything, but I’ve done the best I can — and that matters.

Both of us in so much trouble
I don’t know where to begin
And I don’t know if I can sail this
Sinking ship we’re drowning in
All I know
is that I
Am not gonna go
Give up on this fight
