00:04I've been very quiet, I've been studying a lot, many ditches and much glory and taking good care of my mom.
00:10How is she? How is she?
00:13Well, Mom is very old and has Alzheimer's, and the process isn't easy at all, but oh well, we're doing fine.
00:20training a lot emotionally to be able to support her.
00:23Is that the best medicine?
00:25Yes, being with her daughters is our top priority; let's just say our schedule is centered around her, and then we'll sort things out.
00:35schedule according to your needs.
00:42At first you think you can, but then you start in denial, unable to believe your mom would leave.
00:49Being that mom makes training much harder.
00:53And crazy as I am, I invite people to ask for help.
00:59We have had help so that they can advise us on how to face and deal with the whole process, which you never know.
01:06How is it going to be?
01:07Because otherwise it's crazy, you get emotionally worn down and you break down.
01:11Then came acceptance, training with professionals, and then a great deal of patience and genuine love, even in the
01:19worst moments.
01:20No, no, she is part of my life and a vital part of my life, my mother.
01:25What is certain is that, in terms of appearance, for example, not anymore because she no longer knows, but before
01:31He was very careful.
01:32She said that Mom, well, she was a little confused because we never told her the word.
01:37And I don't know when it connects, because it connects from time to time, but I don't know
01:43when.
01:44And it would bother me a lot, it would affect me a lot if she heard what was happening to her on the very day of the connection.
01:52And that's very much the word Alzheimer's, of course.
01:56So I'm very careful about that, because I don't know when she's going to connect, I don't know.
02:02They feel empathy, they feel affection, even though they don't know who I am, but they feel the affection, the attention,
02:09Care, right?
02:10Yes, and you have to train her a lot to disconnect, to not know where she is, to not know who you are.
02:16But she is physically very strong.
02:19We, the tarocas, are a generation of very strong, very powerful, and very long-lived women.
02:23Mom is going to be 93 years old and she is, of course, independent on her own, but she no longer knows where
02:30this.
02:31You've talked about generation, you've talked about how you've asked for help, which is one of the pieces of advice you give.
02:36Do you consider that in the generation in which family has been your greatest help, apart from professionals, being a
02:42pineapple to help your mom?
02:43It has to be this way; it's about the survival of the caregivers above all else.
02:48Caregivers, if they don't take care of you and if you don't really get guidance, if you don't have professional tools, you can sink.
02:55You can sink because mentally it's a huge drain, because since they have no awareness of time and space, it gives
03:03It's the same whether it's night or day, it doesn't matter.
03:05So, you have to train a lot, distance yourself, that doesn't mean not wanting to distance yourself so that everything doesn't overwhelm you.
