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.

Shoulders


I have been developing a number of "sound bites" to use when people ask me about Gregory and how he is doing and how I am doing. One one hand I could tell long stories about the joys and sorrows of his current condition. And I probably have told them each often! 

So I have decided that less is more and that once the story has been told here on my BLOG I do not need to keep telling it, let alone reliving it. I think this is probably a good thing: Think More, Talk Less.

SOUNDBITES:

Gregory is fine, he's good. (Enough said?)

He is even and that is good.

He is happy, contented, and safe.

Gregory is no where near the man we used to know, but his spirit and soul are still very much in tact.

His CONDITION is much worse but his SITUATION is much better!

My heart is light knowing that Gregory is being well taken care of at Lieberman.

We have much for which to be grateful!

We are blessed. The Universe continues to line up behind us.

I will always carry Grief on one shoulder but have Joy and Comfort on the other.

  1. I just happened to stumble upon these soundbites and I just read about your journey in the sidebar. I think the bites are great and it sounds like you have been a great partner for Gregory. I wish you the best.
