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

Bob has always had this strange thing about blocking out pain. He will do things that hurt him, but has no recognition, or awareness that it is hurting him. Sheri is not sure if this is part of his Frontal Lobe Dementia, his Alzheimer's or his head injury many, many years ago, but Sheri thinks he might actually be doing to much "work" at Adult Day Center. "Al" can hardly move today.  :(
