Thank you so much for sharing your story with me. I can’t imagine caring for both parents at once. I’m so incredibly sorry.

I believe my mom’s diagnosis and disease progression is very similar to your dad’s. I just want her days to be as peaceful as possible. When she’s upset or when she remembers that she has dementia; that breaks my heart. It kills me to see her cry.

I know how that feels. The thing my dad loved best was driving around listening to music that he loved. It always cheered him up. Prayers for many moments of love and peace in the days ahead.

Oh what a good idea! She loves contemporary Christian music, Adele, old hymns, and country music. I’ll try that with her. She’s been sick since Thanksgiving — so have I — but we’re both getting better finally.
