How blessed he was/is to have such a loving family!
It’s a hard thing to come back from.
God bless you for what you did for him!
I could write a book on the patients and situations of
working in rehab/and long term care facilities-it
sure shows what you are made of!
My Dad had Pick’s Disease, which is like Alzheimers
on steroids. He went down hill so rapidly...
there was no memory recovery for him.
The day I knew how far away his mind was,broke my heart in a million pieces.
That day, he kept searching my face intently, then he said
“Honest to God, I don’t know who you are.”
To this day, I don’t know how I got through that visit without breaking down.
I simply said “I’m your daughter, silly!”
But when I got to my car-that was it.
That hard ball of sorrow in my throat finally gave way as I was weeping in my car.
I have had GREAT joy watching my patients come back from a stroke, and tried to always be encouraging.
Everyone I ever took care of is right here in my heart.
Thank you for understanding my stance on this situation.
That poor man-his wife abandoned him too.
I could NEVER do something like that to my husband!
Take care!

After making history as the first female mayor of San Francisco and one of the first two female senators in California, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, ’55, announced this month that she will not seek reelection in 2024. With three decades on the Hill, she is the longest-serving woman in the upper chamber. “She represents an epoch in the Senate,” Sen. Cory Booker, ’91, MA ’92, told STANFORD in 2017. “There will be a huge vacuum when she leaves.”Or a giant sucking sound, like an industrial toilet flushing.
