Interesting concept.

Watching the early morning newsy shows yesterday a guest mentioned this concept. The word stuck with me because I think all care partners are just that – HOPE-aholics.

Hopeful the incontinence will be less or gone.

Hopeful the memories will not completely fade.

Hopeful that she will be less anxious in the evening.

Hopeful that she will think she is home at night.

Hopeful she will sleep peacefully overnight.

Hopeful she will walk better with her left side.

Hopeful she will do her speech exercises.

Hopeful she will remember who I am during the day and into the night.

Hopeful she will not be afraid of what is to come.

Hopeful, always hopeful, she will be fine with staying in a respite situation while I travel to visit my sister.

Hopeful that I will not be anxious while away.

Hopeful that she will eat more.

Hopeful that she will not lose more weight.

Hopeful that visitors will make her days busy while I visit my sister.

Carpe hopeful Diem.
