Oh my gosh, I can't begin to say how important it is to surround yourself with friends and family!!!!!
If you've been honest with everyone about Alzheimer's, this can give you the opportunity to educate people about the disease, and in return ....... your family and friends will give you ........ the love, support, listening ears, and advice you need. It's a win / win situation!
Family and friends are one of God's many gifts!
I've noticed that sometimes people are hesitant about asking David or me, ..... "how is he doing?" Don't be afraid to ask.....it's okay with us, we don't mind questions.. When we're asked how he's doing, it shows that you care.
We love having our children, grandchildren and friends come to our home to visit! We enjoy going places, as long as we don't go where there are large crowds and loud noises. It confuses people with Alzheimer's........ I don't have Alzheimer's, but it can confuse me too.
I say......., "Thank you God for family and friends"....................

I have been following Karen's blog since we decided to adopt from China around Feb. of 2006. On a whim I decided to check out your blog and think you are doing a wonderful job! My in-laws just moved back to Ohio from the Villages, Florida. My father in law also has a diagnosis of Alzheimers and there are so many similarities it is amazing. I plan on sending my mother in law a link. Just reading your blog will help her feel connected to someone going through the same thing. With sincere thanks, Jen Bennett (Ohio)
