Last Sunday, I picked my dad up at his facility to take him to a family dinner. He recognized me and was delighted to have an outing…but first he had something to do.
He walked to the dining area where his friend “Betty” was. He tried to tell her–with his limited language–that he was leaving. To Betty’s credit, she interpreted just what he meant. Then…he gave her a kiss goodbye.
Oh my.
You have to smile.
In fact, did you know there’s such a thing as Alzheimer’s Cartoons?
Trudy Yoder shares a passion for birding with Micah Weaver--and she has an even greater passion for Micah. Their friendship is finally turning romantic when Micah abruptly grows cold. Worse still, he wants to leave Stoney Ridge.

Can’t quite read the 2nd and 3rd cartoons, and clicking on them doesn’t help. 🙁 It takes a special understanding to know how and when to laugh!
Consider yourself lucky to be the one watching. My father, another Alzheimer fella took an unusually strong liking to me – his daughter. AWKWARD!!!
Oh Charlotte…I remember that story!!!! ~Suz
