Most of us have been touched by this terrible disease. We must pray and have enormous patience with our loved ones. Not easy, but that may be us one day.
My wife suffers from dementia. I will keep her with me as long as humanly possible. Her doctor had her admitted to a “Rehab Facility” at first and she was very unhappy. She is home with me now and I care for her and do all of the meal prep. (Thank God for Clarence Birdseye who invented frozen food) Luckily we have some very understanding friends who provide me with moral support which I cherish and appreciate.
One of my best friends who was a member of Mensa and now does not even know his name shocked me and another friend who rode with him every Wednesday to a Senior Fellowship meeting, Then one day he could not find the way home ! Now in a nursing home in Elyria, Ohio . Every one Pray for Bruce !
Beautiful presentation ! We, ALL, live in our minds. Our memories are stored there.
The disease takes away our ability to retrieve them. So, please don’t get frustrated
and / or angry because we can’t draw on them ! Remind us, teach us what the
memories were . Love us, no matter what !!!!
I went through this with my husband who left this world two years ago,and a dear friend from childhood,who found peace in the past month.a devastating .disease
I can identify with this write because I see it in my sister. I wrote a poem titled “Shadow” about iher. It breaks my heart when I hear her struggle to put words together. Thanks for sharing this heart touching account of how this disease robs the person of their ability to connect. Love, Jane

Help us to trust in You, Lord!
I pray for all those people struck with this terrible illness – love them Jesus, and comfort them.
You , Lord Jesus, are our physician, give us strength, wisdom and patience, and above all GIVE US LOVE.
