Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow!

I'm glad AlzCare moved David  from the early/mid Alzheimer Home to the later stage home.  This has been a good move for him. 
There's more music in the home he's in now, and music and his puppy are the key to his happiness.   

I went to visit David four times last week.   He was upset and angry with me at the beginning of Wednesday's visit.  However, he calmed down after a walk around the sidewalk in the backyard.  Then we sat on the porch in the sunshine with his stuffed puppy.

On Thursday he was better.   He told me he missed me and wanted to go home, but he was okay after I explained that he needed to be there for awhile.    

On Saturday I took our son and his wife to see David; this was the best visit so far.   I feel he's adjusting to his new home.   
When we arrived he was sitting in the living room clapping his hands to the beat of the music.

We walked around the sidewalk in the backyard, then we sat on the porch again.   There's speakers on the porch, and David started clapping his hands to the beat of the music again and never mentioned wanting to go home.

For me........I've truly felt the prayers for David and me.  They've lifted me and are sustaining me through this journey.   

My emotions at times are like a roller coaster.   I feel so happy knowing they're taking good  care of him and that he's adjusting.   
I try not to dwell on the fact that he won't be coming home, that breaks my heart.


I wish David didn't have this disease, but I must say I've learned so much, and
anyone whose had close contact with David throughout his life and even now, they come away learning good life lessons from him.

We  are blessed with wonderful friends and family who've been here for us.   
 One day at a time and God will be with us through every moment..
