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 keeps thinking about all the different journeys people are on. The reality is we are all in the middle of some type difficultly, life is difficult. She realizes if she spends to much time on her own hardships she will miss the the opportunity to support others in their own journey. There is much to be thankful for, including the things she has learned such as patience, creative thinking, patience, and more patience, and about who she is as a person. She tries hard to find happiness in the very simplest things in life, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. We were put on this earth to care for one another, and like Bob and "Al" one moment in time is all we are promised.

Galatians 6:2 

Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
