    This poem is dedicated to those who suffer from Dementia or Alzheimer's and for family members who find themselves - forgotten.

We now know more about the heroism of all the U.S. and Iraqi troops and the positive changes they are bringing about." That excerpt, from a letter sent by bereaved parents grieving the loss of a son in Iraq, is typical of the mail I receive each time I return from Iraq and Afghanistan.
