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"

In Bob's first career he was in charge of remodeling stores for Montgomery Wards. He had to read blue prints, be able to conceptualize, and had a technical eye for things."Al" however was fascinated yesterday when he discovered he could see his reflection in the hollow of a silver teaspoon, and even more fascinated   when he turned the spoon around and his reflection was distorted. "Wow, you have got to see this." "Al" announced, I never knew this before, I wonder why it does that?"
(Heavy sigh)
