I knew the day she didn't remember me any more would be the worst for me, and it was. I was delighted though, that she remembered my brother who hadn't seen her in a few years as well as my other brother who didn't see her as often. <br /><br />Other than from the personal to me aspect, the hardest was watching her lose the ability to enjoy anything. She'd been an avid reader and she couldn't even enjoy a book anymore, not even audio. So sad. <br /><br />Let me know if you'd like to borrow this book.Betsy Lewis Gullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08565809564571645094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779177492847810818.post-47496184913441636992011-01-08T13:46:47.692-05:002011-01-08T13:46:47.692-05:00Interesting story!

I also had a friend who's older sister had early onset Alzheimer's--she was a nurse and her husband a Radiologist. She knew she had it and that it was getting worse--must have been terrifying for her. Glad that you were able to care for your mother yourself at home. I know how stressful that must have been.kybarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15379309037143657000noreply@blogger.com
