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"

Well a trip to the doctor is in order for "the boys" tomorrow. Something has changed, not unexpected of course but seems to be a significant change. Sheri timed Bob's movements last night and "Al" had some type of jerky reflex type movement every 5 to 10 seconds for over an hour . Then she stopped counting and moved to the love seat to try to get some sleep. :(
