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.

Forever

Gregory died on October 4 which was a Sunday. Today is the second week anniversary of his passing. I was surprised when I tried to figure out how long ago he moved on. The thinking motivated this poem.


Gregory's Passing

Gregory died on October 4, 2015
Which is only two weeks ago
An eternity of Sundays.

It seems like forever
It seems like yesterday
It seems like not yet.

Forty years together
Just a day has passed 
A lifetime continues.

How long is a moment?
How long is a lifetime?
How long is love?

Forever and a day
Or a moment 
Or a lifetime continuing.
