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 sees it happening again. Those small signs that "Al" is making his way through the crevices of Bob's mind. The mornings have shown signs of deeper confusion, that blank dark stare that signals Sheri is talking "Al" and not Bob. There is a sense of insecurity now much more obvious then before. Subtle changes, Sheri hates this disease.
She needs to pause, praise and pray.
2 Corinthians 4:16
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
