David and his family
I don't like (actually I hate, and I shouldn't hate)reading about the different stages of Alzheimer's disease. However, I have read a lot more than I want to know or
remember!
I try my best to be an optimist, but it is difficult from time to time. As I see the changes that are taking place with David.....it's hard not to panic.
I couldn't sleep several nights ago (actually most nights) so during the middle of the night, what do I do, but turn on the computer. I start reading about Alzheimer's, and the different stages of this horrible brain robbing disease. I wanted to stop reading, but I also felt 'a need' to read, because I probably 'need' to remember what's ahead in our future, and it's hard not to panic.
I want to say that David is doing well, and he is, but......compared to what?? I can see some changes in his personality and his memory, and I just want to cry for him. I just pray and hope that I will be strong enough to be the person I want to be for David. He deserves the best!!
The last three or four days have not been the best (but they certainly weren't as bad as they could be). Tonight we had friends over for pizza and beverages, and he did great !!!
And I say, "thank you God..... for good days, friends and pizza."
