Jim;
Thank you. Alzheimers is a terrible situation, (I've dealt with it when it was simply called "Early Senility") most who suffer from it can't remember what they had for breakfast, but remember vivid detail from their early youth in varying degrees.
Before I had a handle on what is was and, what it caused them to do and act out, from the disease my mother broke up our furniture and lit a fire in the living room, a big fire! It would have been nice however if we had a fireplace in the living room, made a very big mess! a lot of smoke and resulting damage. Seems she was the one in her family as a child who's job it was to light the fire when they got cold in the winter out on the farm. It would have been funny if it hadn’t burned down the living room and kitchen, repairs took six months, awful condition, but no life lost which were lucky considering we were sleeping at the time. Glad that’s all over for all of us. I spent well over 20 Cobras on her care and medical for 10 years before she passed.
These men and women who served in WWII are truly the heroes of our age.
I hope all is well with you. Jim
