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 had a busy morning. It has been almost a month with a very leaky washing machine. The  company that she rents this tiny house from finally got her a new washing machine and it was installed this morning. Bob and "Al" wanted to help the delivery men. Sheri distracted him by saying "you know, they are gonna need these nuts and bolts why don't you work on these." "Bob seemed content with that and "Al" forgot all about the men installing the washer when Bob's favorite singer Daniel O'Donnell appeared on the TV  :)
Being creativity and redirection is a necessity in Sheri's world  :)
