Dorothy’s Dementia

As I type this -Dorothy is being driven around this beautiful sunny, blue sky day by her youngest son, Paul.  She is happy and safe.  The problem is she won’t’ remember it in a few hours after he takes her back to her place. But -in this moment she is at peace. 

I’m guessing that tonight’s phone call will come around 6:45- because the sun is staying out longer.  When I get it, I will breathe in and out- and silently wonder how long this will go on. 

Remain calm- 

Remember it’s not them- it’s a disease

Reflect on the good times 

Release love and understanding

Peace & Love,

Cheryl Doreen
