Sheri has learned this disease consumes your life, Much like when you have young kids and you fall into the trap of letting your kids become the focus of every conversation and everything you do, you often long for adult interaction at the end of the day. Professional marriage counselors will advise you to make time to be a "couple" so your marriage will still be there when the kids are grown. There lies the problem. Sheri has realized she has very little to say that does not revolve around Bob and "Al". Most of the time she knows very little about what is happening in the world around her. Between working full time and caring for Bob and "Al", at the end of the day not only is there no time for adult interaction or time to be a "couple"... Alzheimer's has made certain that there is no "couple".
Sheri hates this disease.
