Elder Care Guide and Information

David Solie hits the nail smack on the head again with his latest post appropriately titled “Second Thoughts”.

This time he’s commenting on the “new kind of work” we take on. Not the paper work chores and the job of cleaning out the house, but the psychological process of sorting out the experience of the death of mom or dad.

His second point - regrets - got me to thinking about my dad. Today on the way to the office, I started suffering from “anticipatory regrets” about the time I’m not spending with him and mom. His post helped me decide it’s time to start taking some of those actions I only think about but never get around to doing.

How about you? Any regrets you want to avoid? Better do it now why you have the chance.
