FOR GREGORY. He was not a VICTIM of ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE, he was a HERO!

PLEASE NOTE: Even though this blog is now dormant there are many useful, insightful posts. Scroll back from the end or forward from the beginning. Also, check out my writer's blog. Periodically I will add posts here if they provide additional information about living well with Dementia / Alzheimer's Disease.

Raspberry Jam

This morning our best friend Roger, who spent the weekend, Gregory and I were sitting at the counter in the kitchen having our morning coffee and toast. Four jams were lined up in front of Gregory, his two pieces of toast cut in half so he could have a sample on each jam.

Finished with Pear, Fig, and Kumquat Orange he was ready for the Raspberry Jam. At first he did now remember which jam was next. So I pointed to the Raspberry. He got distracted and wondered again which jam was next. Roger pushed the Raspberry Jam towards him. Still Gregory was not sure which jam to use next. Roger explained, "The raspberry jam is next," and handed Gregory the jar.

Gregory aware and amused at his continued confusion giggled and lovingly said, "I guess that's what friends are for."
