Tonight, I can't sleep. It makes no sense. I am tired. But I just can't. My mind is racing.
So I am surfing... and I just found this from "Soule Mama". You must read it.
It is beautiful.
I think that it is part of why I do what I do... the photographs, the scrapbooks, the blog, the stories...
I have seen Alzheimer's. I have seen the stories disappear. Forever. I have felt the sadness that that brings.

I love that post too. I was reading it yesterday morning and it's so well written and so poignant.
Totally reminds me of my papa shelton. He would remember everything but the present. And sometimes not even the past. I made a poster of pictures of all his family, and took him a teddy bear because he loved to cuddle. And a Barbie, yeah, a barbie. :-)
what a sweet post. it makes me wish that we had tried harder with granny to help her reconnect with fond memories. you are so good at keeping up with all the memories for your family, they will thank you one day i am sure.
