This blog is about life with my husband who was diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer's and Frontal Lobe Dementia in 2008. He was 64 at the time although now, knowing more about the disease, Alzheimer's was present many, many years ago, which is why early detection is so important. As you read the blog the character "Al" that I created in 2008, represents the way that Alzheimer's is invading our daily lives.
There is an archive tab further down the page that starts from the beginning of our journey.

Living with Bob and Al

"Al" lost his glasses again yesterday morning
They were still no where in sight by noon when
Sheri came home for lunch
Bob was very frustrated and said 
"I always put them in the case at night
I just don't understand"
By the end of the day, Bob was very agitated about it
Daughter number one finds his glasses
On the window sill in the bathroom
Bob says with his jaw clenched tight
" that is ridiculous, who put them there?"
Bob was a firm creature of habit
"Al", not so much......


Proverbs 15:1

"A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger."
