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"

Well Sheri is relieved to know that his doctor does not believe it is Bob's heart that is in distress.... they are not quite sure what it is, could be coming from his upper back around to the front, or any number of other muscular skeleton type problems.  Bob has been so rough on his body over the years, I think it is just catching up with "Al". Sheri is just relieved it not more serious, and of course Sheri can find humor in almost everything... at the emergency room yesterday Bob could see a machine from is bed that was for getting water and ice cubes. "Al" was delighted they had an ice cream machine at the hospital, and was disappointed Sheri would not ask the nurse to get him some. :) Gotta love him.
