I don’t think that my daughter is understanding what I am saying

Recently when I was talking on the phone with my daughter, I was telling her that I just ordered my memory medication from Canada. She knows that I don't have healthcare. She asked me if I could get healthcare at the school that I work at and I said that wasn't affordable because they don't contribute anything.


She said that maybe I should get a job at a different school district where I could get affordable healthcare. I told her that I had thought about that but I felt that it would be too difficult for me. I have been working for the same school district for the past twelve years. My daughter said, “how would you know that it wouldn't work unless you tried?” I told her that it was difficult for me to explain it but I know what is difficult for me and what is not. She doesn't seem to understand what it is like for me living with a memory impairment. She seems to think that I give up too easily and that is so far from the truth and the person who I am!


I was getting a little frustrated so I told her that I was very tired and I needed to tell her goodnight. We both said, "I love you and good night". Then we hung up.
