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"

If living with Bob and "Al" has taught Sheri anything, it is that living life one day at a time, one moment at a time is all we are promised. We are all living to the eventual end of death, worrying about what happens in the mean time is to have wasted the joy that comes in the sunrise, and it is only the belief in our Resurrected Lord, that allows the rebirth of each and every new morning to have purpose and meaning.

Matthew 6:34
4 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

    Amen :) you have such a positive attitude, I wish I could be the same. I believe in the Lord whole hearted, but at times I question what purpose does my life have when I cannot seem to enjoy the days provided to me. I cannot see the joy in my life or my husband who has this terrible disease.

      Rina, I am not always so positive, like you I have days I can not breathe a bit of joy in my life. I am learning to find joy outside my marriage and accepting the things I can not change. It is not easy. Hugs and prayers for you and yours.
