Today I am thinking about Alzheimer's and the effect it has on lives. I haven't had much experience with people who have had it, but I've heard of the ones that have taken care of them. You've heard the old saying: "Of all the things I ever lost, I miss my mind the most." Well, that may not be exactly true. Other people miss your mind whilst you wander happily among the daisies.
What has that to do with the price of tea in China, you ask? In growing older the mind accepts certain things as truth while out flitting out in left field. Boners occur. Wrong dates for birthdays, for example. I notice that I am not as sharp as I use to be - dates are escaping me. Don't be surprised if you suddenly receive a Christmas card in July. If you are thinking, she must of lost her mind, it may be true. And by the way, you can't blame CD, all he does is supply the stamps.
In some things I am sharper than I have ever been, and in some things, a little duller. It must be all the things I've learned over my lifetime that has things a little crowded in my brain.
