Hobbies, I keep Koi and Goldfish. My biggest hobbie is caretaking of my Mom. She is 91 has Alzheimer's and has lived with us for the last 9 years, since my Dad died. My wife is a Saint
Sadly, Mom is likely in her final hours. The Hospice people said 3 days told, and that was 2 days ago. My brother and Sister just arrived and we are all sitting with her. I have to say caring for my Mom has consumed all of our time for many years now. And it was worth all the sacrifice and work. She will pass at home with all the people who love her at her side.
She is peaceful.
I will say Alzheimer's sucks ***...... but it has been my honor and privilege to care for my Mom. I love her so very much, she has made all the difference in my life.
When she is gone, I am sure I will be lost, rudderless, and have so much time I won't know what to do with myself.
Sorry for the long response, just feeling allot of pain.

Tech architect, roboticist and business owner - something I have a bit of a passion for, building stuff that other people will use. Started the business 2 and a half years ago solely to buy the Z06 and that worked out fine - gonna cash out the shares I have (sold 90% of the company for initial investment) and retire.
2016 Z06, Shark grey, currently with just the MGW shifter. Going to do arh headers, 2.9 whipple with underdrive, haltech intake, akra evo exhaust and lightweight flywheel sometime during this year ideally.
Got a lot of hobbies. Main ones are trackdays, climbing, carpentry, guns, mechanics, electronics, and videogames (not a real hobby)

I took care of my FIL, who had Parkinson’s. It was my honor and privilege to care for a wonderful man. Even though it was physically and emotionally exhausting, I would not have changed one second of my time with him.
There are no words I can say to comfort you in your loss. I will be thinking of your family and you.
