ALZHEIMER'S BLOG:

How has this disease changed you?

Have you looked at Alzheimer's Weekly this week. There is an article called 'Days with my Father'. This article is written by Phillip Toledano. He writes about how there was a sudden death of his mother which ended up with him being the sole caretaker of his father. http://www.alzheimersweekly.com/

He wrote: I realized, I think unconsciously, this was really an incredible time. This was a gift to have my father, even though it was incredibly painful and it was a really hard thing to do. I just wanted to remember it, and I wanted to remember the things he said and how he looked and how much we loved each other. Check out his website http://www.dayswithmyfather.com/ .
He took care of his father until his death.

Remember that Alzheimer's Disease affects everyone differently. Phillip's story is very touching and real. Hope you enjoy it. His book should be out in May.
