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 went to visit Bob and "Al" yesterday. They were leaving on their usual walk when "Al" asked if he could bring the cat. Sheri said  "sure, why not." They were strolling around the lobby when a sweet lady in a wheel chair stopped them and said "They don't allow cats in here." motioning toward the door. Sheri said "oh they don't?" The lady replied "no they can visit but we can't have them... but everybody wishes they could have one." Sheri said "oh I'm sorry." They walked away and boss Bob leaned over to Sheri and whispered "I am gong to have to talk to someone about that, they can't let only ME have a cat."
Sweet man.
