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.

Boink Love

Gregory sitting in his wheelchair
Me sitting next to him on a stool
He leans in towards me
I lean in towards him
He leans in closer to me
I lean in closer yet to him
Our foreheads touch
He usually says, "Boink."
This time he said, "I love you!"
Without a prompt from me
My heart soared as high as heavens
Joy carried beautifully, fragilely
on the broad shoulders of grief.
