Sheri was invited to be a part of an Alzheimer's Caregiver Advisory Board in Washington DC this past weekend. This was way, way out side her comfort zone, but she put on her big girl pants and went! Sheri felt a little like a fish out of water to be included with some very well known authors and people very involved in the Alzheimer's world. Everyone there embraced her, and valued what she had to contribute, giving her a confidence in having shared her journey with Bob and '"Al".
Sheri felt very honored to have been asked to this event.
God is good, all the time.
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 feels like she kind of bottomed out this past week. She does not think there is anything in particular thing that caused it... life in general she thinks. It seems so hard to find her new road map to life. She is not looking for sympathy, it is just a self observation. We all have our journeys. Sheri is going to try to immerse herself in the Word of God, because she knows He is the way, the truth, and the light.

Living with Bob and "Al"
Sheri went to see the "boys" this weekend. One thing has changed for sure. Before "Al" moved in Bob rarely smiled, and if he did it seemed forced and tight. Sheri thinks this is the most natural smile she has ever seen on Bob's face, even if it is because "Al" has stolen his natural inhibitions. God is good.
