Morning schmucks...

Went to a get together with my wife's family on Sunday, I left home with 1 woman and 3 girls in the vehicle, returned with 1 woman and 5 girls (the extra 2 are staying all week). Then middle daughter had a friend over as well last night, so there was 1 woman and 6 girls eating breakfast this morning. Talk about driving me nuts.

Dementia is rough. I hope my kids never have to experience it with me or their mom. It's cruel and heartbreaking.

True... My mom is 91 and barely recognizes me now. We only get to see her once a year or so and it I am always depressed afterwards. She even has trouble recognizing my oldest brother who lives in the same town and see's her pretty regularly.

Just try and remember she's not GIVING you a hard time, she's going THROUGH a hard time. I can't think of anything that terrifies me more than having to experience that. I watched my grandmother and it's awful, just awful.

Oh absolutely. More than anything I feel bad for her. I had a co-worker whose mom went down this path very rapidly and it was devastating for their entire family. My mom's has been much slower so she has had to deal with it for a while now. Just hard to watch when she looks at her grand children and has no clue who they are much less me or my brothers.
 
We are starting to suspect that my grandmother is in the early stages. She is starting to forget things. Just Sunday morning after church she said to me oh it's nice to see you, I haven't seen you since you took me to the hospital this winter! Never mind the fact she has seen and visited with me multiple dozens of times over the last 6 months.

What's crazy to me, is that my grandmother could remember with amazing clarity and detail something that happened 50 years earlier, but couldn't remember what she said two minutes earlier.
