I saw this quote on Pinterest today and it so describes my feelings. I thought I would share it with you. I don't know who wrote this but it is so true.
There is much pain to endure when watching a loved one with Alzheimer's Disease. There is the pain of perpetual grief. There is the raw wound of continual loss. There is the struggle to preserve dignity and the desire to respect the present and cling to the past. However, in the midst of the heartache there is a small glimmer of light that exists to remind us of the things that Alzheimer's can't take away....the warmth of a touch, the importance of smiles and laughter, and the knowledge of what it truly means to experience unconditional love and acceptance.
