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"

When Sheri looks back over the last nine years, She has no idea where the years went, or her life. It seems in many ways like life stood still. Her emotions stuffed so far down she could not find them, due the overwhelming task of caring for Bob and "Al", and working full time. So now she struggling to deal with those emotions even though it is safe for them to come out of hiding. Sheri knows it will take time but this "ambiguous loss" thing... well Sheri needs to pause, praise and pray.
Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
