It was hard for families to deal with, knowing the person that was once in that body - but when you get 're-acquainted' with the 'new' person, it can turn into an unexpected blessing sometimes. It's kind of like flipping a page in a book, and it's not always a horror story.ClassyChassyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12645241442596037812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7085959616044196804.post-20469088693219724572010-09-02T23:28:06.558-04:002010-09-02T23:28:06.558-04:00I am so afraid that one day something like that wi...I am so afraid that one day something like that will happen to me.

I think we are especially afraid of alzheimers since it's gotten so much attention the last couple of decades, coming out of the 'old age dementia'closet to being one of the most talked about diseases of anyone over 40...and the boomers living longer has allowed so many families to witness a loved ones horrible decline up close and personal. I saw it with my dad, and fear it almost as much as cancer. Well, life deals us what it will.Wander to the Waysidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056931538024315352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7085959616044196804.post-62805517623118385272010-09-02T08:32:38.113-04:002010-09-02T08:32:38.113-04:00Good morning, Rose!
