Its not a holiday.

Its another facing of our side of the planet to the Sun due to the rotation of our planet.

You, I, and everything that exists is simply another moment closer to not existing.

Don't get me wrong....life is unique and its in our nature to celebrate just existing...but really though, at what point does the pomp and circumstance wane?

You a young fella?

Are you Chinese?

Not mad, just curious. I like to understand motives.

On a serious note... Has anyone on here gone through or going through a parent showing signs of Alzheimer's? How do you deal with it, what did you do? etc?

I have not, but I think the first thing to do is get them to go to a doctor and get it diagnosed.

celebrated by more than just the Chinese, which is why it is called the Lunar New Year

and I have Mongolian cousins who celebrate it, so growing up we would celebrate it

My grandma had it and passed from it in 2017. Believe mid to late 2014 she showed signs that were noticeable at least. Grandpa during that time was in rough shape. He caught some infection and had a stroke while driving. Thought we were going to lose him but he pulled through & doing ok until recently (still not bad). My uncle did his best to be a caretaker since he never really left the nest for awhile. Then we had to put both in the nursing home.
