Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Its very sad when our parents are at that stage.

We have done the LPA for my parents (dad and his wife) while they were able to sort it themselves.

Mother is all under control as well - apart from her mouth, when i showed her the cake i made for her yesterday, she said it was no wonder i was fat if i ate cake like that !

More sad for Mr Carp than me, although I love her and hate seeing her like this (and also feel very mean, because I find her exasperating sometimes and it's not her fault).
He feels like he's already lost his Mum on some levels, and a bit like having another child to look after.

Dementia is an evil disease :(

LPA is a very practical and useful step. When Mum had her stroke in 2004 it made things so much easier that my brother had LPA.

About This Thread

Maintained by Mandymoo
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2017 thread, everybody welcome :-)

The thread motto is:

'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles of either you or the spot you reached the target or both if you want to. And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed and sometimes even some running is talked about.

Happy running :-)
