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.

Passover

Passover.
Holiday of leaving slavery
And gaining freedom.

At Lieberman,
Celebrated with some 200
Residents and their families.

Residents mostly compromised
Mostly distant
Mostly towards death.

Yet the familiar
Traditions and tunes
Created sparks of life.

The taste of the food
Sweet grape wine
wetting the dry matzo.

An aura of love
And life
Pervaded the room.
