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"

In Sheri' endless pursuit of something to keep Bob stimulated, she brought out the coins again yesterday and Bob spent about an hour trying to read what they say. "Al" was ecstatic with the larger sliver one. Bob hobbled over to Sheri (who was in the kitchen doing dishes) and with a big smile on his face said  "Look at this big one." Sheri replied "Yes that is a quarter." "Al" with boyish excitement said "No, no it says quarter DOLLAR."
Simple pleasures Sheri simple pleasures.
