he has progressed in his disease and was recently placed
in a hospice house as he enters the last stage of this disease
his progression really bothers me a lot
i hope that my family can handle this as well as his wife and
two girls have done
its a painful journey they are taking
i know if my diagnosis is correct that this is the path i will take like
the one my mother took and the one that he is on now
im hoping though that my journey along this path is at its
beginning and that i have time to stop and enjoy life as much
as i can
i try to do that everyday as i know the clock is ticking
lets support alzheimers research so that his kids and mine
and yours will have options for treatments
its almost within our grasp now
our thoughts and your prayers for his family please as they enter
this difficult time
