After living in Southern California for 20 years, I returned home to upstate New York to watch over my mother who was suffering from Alzheimer's Disease. My brother and I did everything we could to keep her in familiar surroundings at home and avoid assisted living. We were successful until June 2009, two weeks short of her 80th birthday. These Alzheimer's Moments document her life and the challenges of being a primary caregiver.

I've been reading your blog recently and wanted to tell you that I understand how it is to see someone you love deteriorate cognitively. I'm caring for my partner of many years who has HIV-related dementia, PML, and a host of other neuro conditions.
God bless you for being there for your mom. Most people that I've met would not do that for their partner or their parent.
Best,
ASM
