Two months
has been a long time to post. I have gotten a lot of comments and emails lately about my journey with this disease so I will try to go back a little to give some perspective to it and answer some of the questions people have asked.

I began having problems at work -- I was the mana ger of a 2,000 seat performing arts theatre and found that after 8 (Source: Dealing with Alzheimer's Blog)

Ups and Downs
We were delighted to learn on Mother ' s Day that our son and his lovely wife are going to be parents in November. It will be our first grand child and I can ' t wait to see what is in store for our family.
But this month has also brought deaths. Just yesterday I attended a funeral for a 32 year old (same age as my son). And although this beautiful young lady had health issues it is still hard to (Source: Dealing with Alzheimer's Blog)

Thanks
to the Athens NARFE (National Association of Retired Federal Employees) group that had me speak yesterday. They were a very gracious group and I appreciated the time they gave me.

2016
Happy New Year. It has been so long since I posted. Those thoughts don ' t come as readily as they used to! Hope everyone had a good holiday. Our holiday was a little on the quiet side which was good for me. My son and daughter-in-law spent the Christmas Holiday in Taiwan visiting Jennifer ' s extended family. So, we didn ' t put as many decorations up and that suite me fine. I don ' t like (Source: Dealing with Alzheimer's Blog)

Thanksgiving is Upon Us
I have been trying to get back to this blog for a long time and just keep getting sidetracked. I am still here!

I have heard from many people (Source: Dealing with Alzheimer's Blog)
