On most days I could fill pages on my Blog, as there is always so much happening here. Today’s post is necessarily brief: perhaps quality, rather than quantity. This is because I want to spend time away from the keyboard, and stay close to Maureen. I am trying to grasp her reality, and the short piece that follows will hopefully set me on this path:
I have stopped using the Alzheimer’s Site Talking Point for the time being, as I wanted to concentrate on my Blog. In the last two days I have received private messages from two, of the many, people who gave me support as I searched for a way forward as a Care Partner. One of them, Nitram, forwarded an excellent clip from YouTube that I had never seen before called: Dementia From The Inside. It is a very moving piece that gives an insight into what it’s like to have dementia.
I also think ‘I’m Not Gonna Miss You’ from Glen Campbell, is a very pertinent song for me to focus on today: he has Alzheimer’s.
I hope you enjoy watching these very moving clips from YouTube
I’m grateful not to be experiencing what you are. You seem to be handling in, with truth and grace AND helping others who are in a similar place. Wonderful.
