The Cozy Corner

I just lost an aunt and an uncle, both in December with end stage Alzheimer's - just such an ugly disease!
Both of my grandmother's. With my dad's mom it actually made her dying easier because she didn't know who i was for several years. So I had time to grieve before she finally died.

Now my mom is starting to show signs and refuses the tests.

Every time I draw a blank on something I start to wonder now.

Yep... that fear is hard to shake, that's for sure. There is so much Alzheimer's on both sides of my family

Every time I blank on things I laugh it off as perimenopause brain to everyone around me... but that's not what I think deep down

Same man. I have a strong family history of dementia and a brain injury...I take copious notes and set reminders and practice conversations and do everything I can to stay on top of it.
