    What a difficult and challenging life you've led these past few years. My wife runs a practice dedicated to the care of those with Alzheimer's and so I am all too familiar with how dementia effects the entire family. But, somewhere up there, he's toasting his oldest boy, with a fine Chianti. And he hasn't stopped boasting about his family

    Al, I am so sorry on the loss of your dad. There are just no words which can help. What a fantastic life your parents had together. Sounds like it was full of love, commitment, some hardship but also many happy memories. Hug your mom tight Al, she needs you more then ever...but also take care of yourself. It is not easy being a caregiver as you well know. Thinking of you and your family and the many siblings but mostly of your mom. It is the hardest to lose a child, second hardest to lost a spouse. Sending much love your way and many hugs. If you stop for an minute you may be able to feel it as I am sending it has hard as I can.
    Your friend,
    Pat

    My sincere condolences to you Al. I worked with dementia folks for the past 20 years. It's not easy to watch a parent decline with dementia.

    Thank you everyone for your Kind and thoughtful words.Its a rough time for us right now, but I know it will get better in Time. I have not really had time to sit down and really grieve yet, My Mom needs alot of support and help , and my special needs brother is having a rough time also. But as I had my coffee today it really hit me that holidays and get togethers will be very different...someone thats always been there will be absent. Thats going to be hard.

    Al

    Peter, I am so sorry for your loss. I truly know how you must be feeling. We are two peas in a pod my friend. Hang in there.
