I lost my Grandfather to the horrible pains of Alzheimer's - I'm looking at his picture on the mantle; holding a crate of raspberries he was so proud of growing in the back yard. I can still hear his voice with that picture as he looks down over my family.
I don't know exactly what to tell you but please remember the good times. Your Dad is always your Dad, please keep talking to him over and over again; I've heard it helps and have no reason to believe otherwise.
Take care of you too, Alzheimer's takes a toll on the whole family so please don't take it all on yourself.
I agree with you completely. I still love being with him no giving him my love and gratitude. Your grandpa and his raspberries, I love that you have his picture there.
It’s my mom who is taking on too much. We are about to get her a health care worker at home for him, which she doesn’t want. But this is too much for her and it isn’t going to get better. :(
