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"
Trips to urgent care with an Alzheimer patient never goes well... regular doctors just don't seem to get how Alzheimer's works. Yes, Sheri needs to answer every question for Bob..there is no other way of doing it.

Dr.s should know after asking several questions to the patient that they are unable to answer. Hope Bob is better and home again. Good luck and hugs to you.
