I am a 59 - soon to be 60 - year male. I'm a license practical nurse, married for over 27 years to a RN. We have two sons, ages 23 and 20 and a beautiful DIL. For nearly six years, from Dec. 1995 to Sept. 2001, I stayed at home as the full time (24/7) caregiver for my mother who passed away in September of 2001 from Alzheimer's Disease. I wrote poetry as a hobby and have written many poems about my mother's illness and related topics.
