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 a very unique cane that Sheri bought him several years ago. It suits his personality well, it looks like a saw. Sheri used a wood burning tool to put his initials on it when he went into the nursing home so everyone would know who it belonged to. There is a hook by the door at the house now for Bob to hang his cane so "they" don't spend hours looking for it in morning. "Al" however had a different location in mind... :)
