I don't post here too often, so I don't know how many of you recall that I subscribed to this sub for her sake. I've spent the past several years caring for her, and when I found this subreddit, I figured I'd subscribe to get whatever ideas I could, and to ask whatever questions might occur to me, to better understand how to help her.

She is beyond my help now, and I wanted to thank all of you for being here, not only for my sake, but for each of yours, and I wish you all the best.

We sometimes doubted if Mom was really blind or not. She liked to keep an immaculate house. You could leave a glass of water on the table, leave the room for 10 seconds, and when you came back, she would be holding it up in her hand asking, "Is this yours? Do you still want it?"

One time, I was grabbing some ice cubes from the freezer, and one of them got away from me and shot across the floor. I was trying to figure out where it went, looking under the tables and the chairs, but not moving anything.

After a minute or so, she asked me, "Did you find it yet?"

I was like, how did she even? So I asked her, "Did I find what?"

She said "the ice cube that you're looking for."

I asked her how she knew about the ice cube, and she said, "I heard you drop it."

I said, "How did you know I was looking for it?"

She said, "I know you wouldn't just leave it."

Kinda felt silly not realizing the perfectly simple explanations on my own.

You're all doing a beautiful thing here. Peace to everyone.

EDIT: Fixed a couple of typos.
