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.

Happy Easter

My Salvation Poem 
September 18, 1997
What is most important about this, is that God knew what my life had in store for me and knew I would need Him desperately ...way before "Al" moved in.

 I had wept through life in silent sorrow
With Christ unknown, an uncertain tomorrow.
 So I searched my heart for many years 
 And wrestled with my many fears.
 It was a journey that took me deep within
 a place in my soul I had never been.
Among the books I walked many a mile
Looking for answers in God’s gracious smile.
Then as if the Lord had blessed my eyes
The words were real, I was no longer blind.
You died on the cross and took with You my sin
Only now I can see how selfish I’ve been!
Yet with open arms I found You there
with a forgiving heart and a tender prayer.
I have humbly asked You into my heart
Thank You dear Jesus, we never shall part.
