dave said...: My youngest daughter and Emily, her daughter, were in a "controversal" pet shop. They had outrage and cash. Leo had never been on grass and hardly ever out of the cage. So, in a way, yes.
He has an IQ of about 3, but he is sweet, and takes Miriam on walks. He LOVES to travel and go camping with us in our little trailer.; November 9, 2007 at 8:29 AM

favorite reason seemed to be on the internet the
simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get irked while people consider worries that they just do not know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the whole thing without having side effect , people could take
a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

this blog

This blog began as a spot to vent about my life with Miriam and her time with Alzheimer's disease.

She was diagnosed in '99 and her decline has been quite slow. In fact some of our best years of our long marriage have been these recent years.

Alzherimer's, at least her version is a disease of waiting. One shoe drops and it can be a very long time before the other one drops.

So life goes on.

At the beginning of this blog I told the story of our courtship and marriage, about out family and our personal journey with this disease. The part that scares the most is the anticipation as the disease slowly progresses.

So, I will touch on that subject from time to time, but the entries will tend toward comments on life. I'll leave politics and religion for others to worry about, not that I don't have strong opinions!

I have my hands full just looking after my wonderful Miriam.

We met when we were 6, began dating at 15 and have been together since. We will have our 56th anniversary this June.

We have four wonderful daughters. Smart, independent, awesome. They have given us 7 grandsons and 4 granddaughters. None of them are little any more. The oldest is 28 and married, the youngest is 14.

Until this last fall we lived in a hosue I designed and built in the '70's and it is pretty weird and wild, but very comfortable. Last summer the girls came to the conclusion that I really did need help dealing with Miriam. Now we live on a couple acres with daughter 1.

Life has been good. There is not much I would do different even if I could. We are rich beyond belief but chronically short of cash!

And, unless stated otherwise all the photographs are mine.
