Hej Helen What a lovely little poem. Alzheimers...has taken our Mum's & our children's nana/grandma and just left a shell of a person...BUT what I truely believe is that they know and understand still the meaning of LOVE and that they are LOVED. That's a great comfort that this wicked disease has not robbed them of the capacity to LOVE & BE LOVED! Sending you much love & hugs Helen LOVE PEACE enJOY the best of what remains... Julie x
So sorry about your Mum Helen - everything that Julie says is so true. When my best Auntie was in hospital with it in the final stages, I went to visit her and when she saw me coming her eyes went very wide and she mouthed my name. I`m totally convinced to this day she still knew who I was and it was a great comfort to me to know I had sparked a tiny little memory in her ravaged brain that made her happy. She was a very wonderful person and she didn`t deserve to go so horribly. I`ll never forget her.
shame , my mam does not know she is a mam or a grandma xx ( alzheimer's has robbed her of this ) xx
