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"

Most of the time Bob is silent, nodding his head from time to time as if he agrees with what Sheri is saying , even if  "Al" clearly does not understand. But last night Bob was trying very hard to relay something that had happened at "work" (code for Adult Day Center), but the story was so mixed up and repetitive , Sheri could not make heads or tails out of the conversation. She did gather though, that someone was in distress and "Al" tried to help.
Dear sweet man.
