Man our families have a lot in common. That’s how it was with my dad’s mother too. It was really sad because she mistook my Dad for my grandfather a couple of times- my grandfather had been gone over 20 years at that point. It was so sad to watch because she was such a sweet old lady who despite having six kids and several grand and great grandkids could see them all as individuals. It saddens me my youngest brother didn’t get to know her more and my other brother’s daughter never met her.

Yep. Similar in a dozen different ways.

Sympathy hugs all around.

God bless those nurses and care providers for people with dementia - most under appreciated job in America (possibly only outdone by teachers).
