A Mother’s Day with Alzheimer’s
My friend Beverly has a touching post from Mother’s Day about her mother-in-law who has Alzheimer’s:
Despite the fact that Nate (her son and my husband) and I visit her regularly, I don’t believe she has any idea who we are. We are friendly faces that come to visit her. We laugh with her and listen intently as she tells some of the same stories over and over and over again. Her short term memory is shot but she can vividly describe things from her childhood.
