For the last three and one half years my wife of 54 years has been going through the same thing.
She also just had her 76th birthday last Sunday (Aug.19th)
After keeping foster children (11 total) over a period of 8 years, before we had 3 children of our own.
Some days she is cheerful and smiling, but on most days she does not reconize our children and grandchildren.
Thanks for sharing your article!
