Mom: Wheeeeeee!
The cat stops abruptly, bows down for a big stretch with her legs elongated out in front of her, fanny in the air, and tail straight towards the ceiling.
Mom: You're taking my picture!

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.
