I found, too, a different side of Mother's personality after she developed Alzheimer's and got through that first confusing (especially to her) stage. She became agreeable and sweet, with her ready smile...one the nurses always commented on. I discovered I had to enjoy Mother as she was at that time and instead of living in the "wish it were" or "might have been" world. By caring for her and accepting her, I found a greater (though different kind) of love for her. Thanks for visiting Alzheimer’s Notes and sharing about your mom.

She is so sweet as she always was . Now she lets it show but she doesn't know she is that person. She was always too strong to show her heart. She is very much like a 5 year old who just says what she thinks and it's all so sweet. I miss my mom 4 to 6 days a week because that’s how many times I see her. She is so sweet as she always was .
