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 and "Al" are showing new signs of anxiety now. A car or truck goes by the front of the house, the noise is a concern for him. If "they" can hear a fire truck or police car siren, a look of worry and confusion sweeps over "Al's" face and he will say "what is that?" with fear in his voice. Sheri has to say "it is okay it, they are going to help some one, or it is along way away."
Sheri hates this disease.
