I'm in a jumble. My mother is slowly losing her sense and sensibility, and there's little I can do about it.

My own Mom is advancing to that stage and will arrive soon enough. It's sad to see what we remember change to the reality of what is.

Those few lines of yours are very good, especially knowing the context.

Peace

When all is what one knows now are just memories, but the ravages of failing thought take that away in the end

Peace to you.
