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"

Sheri got to see Bob in his own element yesterday at "work" (code for Adult Day Center). The choir had a concert and Sheri made it a point to go. She had to miss the the first one in December. Bob was very proud to be a part of this, he was grinning from ear to ear something Sher rarely sees. Sheri watched him intently and video taped as much as she could on her phone. "Al" sang with the "ladies only" part a few times and Sheri could tell when he was lost on where they were in the music, but Sheri realized that Bob and "Al" are happy, and that Bob really does feel like he belongs with these people...
Thank you Open Circle Staff Sheri thinks you guys are great!
