Mom had lost her memory in Nov 2010. So we had all major holidays that year so different. I put my christmas tree up early some would say to early.. Always before Thanksgiving that year mom had lost her memory. Dad had brought her over after she got out of the hospital. As she walked in to our house she said why do these people have a tree growing in their house???? These people??? So hard to hear her say things like that. We took out picture and showed them to her so she would know who everyone was. As she would say I am a kid again...
Oct 2011 my daughter was about 13 years old. She would still go out trick or treating with her friends. She was telling my mom about how excited she was. To go trick or treating she would get free candy that night.. As she told my mom what trick or treating was. She got my mom all into it. My mom came in the door and said she needed to get a costume..???... Ummm okay???? Why I asked??? She was like to get free candy.... Lillian said I could go trick or treating with her and I would get a lot of candy... My mouth dropped open.... I screamed Lillian come here... Sis did you tell your grandma she could go trick or treating??? Yes she said. Well she cant she is to old for that.. So I ended getting mom to hand out candy to kids. As that back fired on me. Lmao. There just so happened that a lady that like about my moms age that came up for candy... Mom said not fair she is trick or treating. All I could say was well mom she shouldn't be..
