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"

Dear sweet Bob. Sheri took him with to the pharmacy to try to find something to help with the foot pain. "Al. was picking up random things like hair coloring,  vitamins, and toys asking "is this what you are looking for", Sheri was frustrated at first, but then it dawned on her, Bob knew something was wrong with Sheri, "Al" just could not understand what she needed. Actually when Sheri realized he was trying to help, her foot did not feel any better... but her heart sure did. :)

  1. I sure hope you can get some help for the foot pain. Your situation is difficult enough to navigate w/o adding physical pain to the mix!
