Just when you think that your life is NOT normal, you find out it is. Imagine my life as normal, the thought is beyond my imagination. I heard on TV that Grandparents become caregivers to their adult children and/or grandchildren has become the way of life these days. Just when we think it is time to retire we end up raising yet another family. I myself am raising four grandchildren and my daughter when she declides to grace us with her presence. There are two boys ages 12 and 7, and two girls ages 3 and 16 months. A big handful for a working woman and a husband who has a terminal illness and is on a liver transplant list. Some think I'm sooo strong, I hate when people say that, I don't have a choice so I just do it. I get through life everday the best way that I can. Strenghth has nothing to do with it. I just do what I have to do to stop the madness and make the children feel safe and loved. Something their parents can't seem to accomplish.
