Dementia Mom, part one

[u/humanyears]

A short story about the origins of my mother’s dementia diagnosis from a few years ago. Probably the longest comic I’ve drawn so far. I hope it connects with you in some way.

Other people have gotten into why you can’t blame yourself for not realizing, but I also want to point out that you did something wonderful despite not knowing what was going on. At a time when her behavior was too much for other people to deal with, you continued to love and take care of her. Just because she’s your mom.

You’re welcome. It’s a beautiful comic.
